The Supreme Court-appointed Justice RM Lodha panel has moved the Supreme Court seeking the removal of the BCCI top brass including president Anurag Thakur and secretary Ajay Sirke for non-compliance of court orders. The panel has sought an urgent hearing in the matter and wants the BCCI bosses punished for non-compliance of its report.


The Lodha panel seeks the replacement of the BCCI top brass by cricket administrators. "If BCCI thinks they are law unto themselves, they are
wrong," the SC said and asked BCCI to comply with its orders.


The judicial panel, in its meeting on Monday, had deliberated and discussed about the manner in which the BCCI has flouted the timelines issued by it from time to time. The panel today filed its status report before the apex court seeking appropriate directions against the cricket body.
