Kolkata: His exile is not yet over but N Srinivasan was given the go ahead to perform the BCCI’s “constitutional and statutory functions” by the Working Committee, which also invited him to attend the Board’s Annual General Meeting on September 29 in Chennai.

Srinivasan, who was forced to step aside in the wake of the IPL spot-fixing scandal in which his son-in-law Gurunath Meiyappan was implicated, attended the working committee meeting here on Sunday.

The Tamil Nadu strongman, however, did not chair the meeting, which was presided over by interim chief Jagmohan Dalmiya.

“Mr Jagmohan Dalmiya was in the Chair. He informed the members that there were certain constitutional and statutory functions of the President, BCCI, which would have to be discharged by Mr N Srinivasan till the next AGM,” BCCI Secretary Sanjay Patel said in a statement after the working committee meeting.

“It was decided that the Working Committee invite Mr N Srinivasan, President, BCCI, to perform his constitutional and statutory functions and attend the meeting,” he added. (PTI)
