A draft constitution of the BCCI was submitted in the Supreme Court in a sealed cover yesterday, incorporating suggestions of the Justice RM Lodha panel on reforms in the cash-rich cricket body. The apex court, which had summoned BCCI office-bearers CK Khanna, Amitabh Choudhary and Aniruddh Chaudhry for allegedly coming in the way of the preparations of the draft constitution, took note of their personal appearance, and exempted them from appearing before it on November 29, the next date of hearing.

A bench headed by Chief Justice Dipak Misra made it clear that it would not allow any plea now seeking to intervene in the ongoing proceedings, saying that they would be "cruelly" rejected. "In pursuance of an earlier order, the draft constitution has been filed. The personal appearance of the office-bearers is now dispensed away with," the bench said. The bench had summoned the officials after it was alleged that they had been stalling the process of framing of draft constitution, being framed in accordance with its judgement.
