Vadodara : Baroda Cricket Association (BCA) president Samarjeetsinh Gaekwad was on Sunday suddenly removed from his post by a rival group headed by veteran administrator Chirayu Amin during association's recent AGM.

Members of the faction led by Amin, an ex-BCA President, passed a resolution against Gaekwad after he adjourned the AGM on conclusion of the listed business.

Snehal Parikh, In-charge Secretary of BCA, told that the members present in the AGM were very angry over the manner, in which Gaekwad adjourned the meeting.

So, they submitted a no-confidence motion against Gaekwad to JT Patel, BCA Vice-President (belonging to the Amin group), who was in the chair.

After the AGM was adjourned by Gaekwad, the members present at the meet ‘unanimously’ adopted the motion removing him from the post of President and appointed Patel as his successor, Parikh said.

Patel, after taking charge, approved the account of BCA for the financial year 2013-14 and also appointed auditor for FY15, he said.
Gaekwad said “a number of issues were raised during the three hours of AGM and voting on them had to be conducted through secret ballots as it was difficult to approve the listed agenda by raising of hands by the members present.”
