New Delhi, Oct 15 (Ians) The Supreme Court on Thursday gave the green signal to the new dates of elections of the Delhi and District Cricket Association (Ddca) next month after the warring factions struck an out-of-court settlement and submitted affidavits to that effect. The new polling dates are November 5-8.
Returning Officer Navin B. Chawla, based on an opinion from Ddca Ombudsman Justice (Retired) Deepak Verma, had countermanded the elections for six posts after both felt that the process had been "polluted beyond redemption" due to politics within the Ddca.
