Such was the situation after the news was made official that the sub-committee couldn't discuss about filling up of vacant positions of support staff which were up for grabs.
The members of NCA sub-committee were today apprised that one Gurudutt Shanbagh, who is neither an employee of BCCI nor associated with any state associations signed documents on behalf of the Board with Karnataka Industrial Areas Development Board (KIADB) for procuring 49 acres of land at a place called Kurki near the airport.
Apparently, BCCI made a payment of Rs 46.135 crore for this deal. This deal happened in 2010.
Earlier in 2008, BCCI had paid Rs 3.841 crore to Karnataka government for 32 acres of land at a place called Bidadi for building NCA facilities but the deal was called off as it was far away from the international airport and logistical difficulties were taken into account.
Now after having paid nearly Rs 50 crore (Rs 49,97,60,000), BCCI bosses were surprised as to the number of PILs that were filed in the Karnataka High Court. On June 20, the High Court gave its verdict terming the land deal illegal.
This is when BCCI top brass realised that they have been taken for a ride by a tout. Shanbhag, since then, has been untraceable and the role played by former Manager (Administration) A K Jha came under the scanner.
It has been learnt that BCCI Game Development Manager Ratnakar Shetty got a recorded statement from Jha where he has admitted that "Shanbagh had co-ordinated voluntarily on behalf of BCCI" but couldn't give any convincing answer as to what has been the former's (Shanbagh's) locus standi.
"When we questioned as to how Shanbagh entered into the picture, we were told that no one knows his background as he was regularly seen sitting at Jha's office," said a BCCI office-bearer.
Jha has already been removed by the BCCI and the NCA committee today referred the matter to BCCI Working Committee.
"Since Rs 50 crore is a big amount and also there is an urgent need to decide on what kind of action be taken against Shanbagh and Jha, the matter has been referred to Working Committee for approval."
A few members also raised questions that how the then BCCI treasurer, who had the signing authority, disbursed such huge amounts if it was known that Shanbagh was BCCI representative in the land deal but there were no concrete answers.
Among other decisions approved by NCA sub-committee are: Zonal Cricket Academy (for five zones) are again coming back as State Cricket Academies will be under its wing.
Only BCCI contracted players can avail free rehabilitation programme at the NCA while franchises have to bear costs of injuries during IPL.
