CCI members to meet next Monday to decide fate of the proxy voting system

Cricket club of India members to meet next best to decide fate of the controversial proxy voting system

Listen to this article :

Members of Mumbai's prestigious Cricket Club of India will meet next Monday at an Extraordinary General Meeting to decide whether or not the present 'evil' proxy system of voting by proxy at the club's Annual General Meeting should be consigned to perdition.

In existence for decades, the system of voting by proxy has been a key determining factor in the election of the Club's president and committee members, despite opposition from founding stalwarts like the late legend AFST Taleyarkhan and other distinguished members.

Reflecting the changing temper of the times and culture of the club and its membership, a substantial body of opinion in the club's executive Committee and its general body now feels the club's recent unsavoury infighting has signalled time for a change in its Memorandum of Articles and Articles of Association.
