This is not going to lead you anywhere,&#8221; a bench headed by Chief Justice T S Thakur said, emphasising that transparency, fairness and objectivity were most important aspects in all decisions including disbursal of funds by BCCI.<\/p>\n<p>The bench was pained at BCCI&#8217;s stance that the verdicts and directions of the apex court and the Lodha panel were contrary to statutory provisions, saying its reluctance to accept them was part of a &#8220;strategy&#8221; or &#8220;design&#8221;, after senior advocate Gopal Subramaniam, assisting as an amicus curaie, drew attention to the BCCI&#8217;s affidavit.<\/p>\n<p>He also referred to constitutional provisions dealing with Supreme Court judges and criticised the board for roping in Justice (Retd) Markandey Katju who made &#8220;inappropriate remarks&#8221; against the judgement of the apex court and the deliberations of the Justice Lodha committee, to undermine the dignity of the apex court.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Once you become judge of the Supreme Court, you become part of the institution to which there is dignity attached,&#8221; he said, asking &#8220;can a former judge, once a colleague, can speak about the judgements&#8221;, talk to media or hold press conferences.<\/p>\n<p>Though the BCCI received the comments of Justice Katju in writing, it later distanced itself from him but used his views as an averment in the affidavit, Subramaniam said, adding that the apex cricket body was liable for both civil and criminal contempt for disobeying the binding judgement.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Can a body find out ways and means to subvert the judgement. The answer is &#8216;No&#8217;. It is a civil as well as criminal contempt. A binding judgement of this court cannot be disobeyed and subverted in such a manner till the time it is either modified or reviewed,&#8221; he said while stressing that all decisions of BCCI, post apex court judgement, be declared &#8220;non est (null and void).&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The senior advocate said the apex court should pass an order that BCCI office bearers should be &#8220;superseded&#8221; by court-appointed administrators of &#8220;impeccable integrity&#8221;.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BCCI today faced the Supreme Court&#8217;s wrath for its &#8220;defiant attitude&#8221; in implementing the directions of the Justice R M Lodha committee to reform cricket in the country and &#8220;hurriedly&#8221; disbursing around Rs 400 crore to state bodies.
