The BCCI constitution states that any office-bearer who reaches the age of 70 becomes disqualified. Roger Binny celebrated his 70th birthday on Saturday, July 19. However, the draft Sports Bill allows a person elected before turning 70 to complete their term, even if they cross the age limit during their tenure.
However, Binny may remain as president until the BCCI’s Annual General Meeting (AGM) in September. He could continue informally, without signing official documents or performing administrative duties.
Meanwhile, Shukla is awaiting clarity from the board’s senior officials. With several of them recently attending the ICC Annual Conference in Singapore, formal decisions regarding the leadership transition have been delayed.
Sports Minister Mansukh Mandaviya Set to Introduce the Bill
As per the bill, the age limit for office-bearers in national sports federations will be raised from 70 to 75 and is expected to override existing constitutions, including that of the BCCI. If passed, it would allow Roger Binny to continue in his role and serve a new three-year term.
