Financial irregularities running into multiple crores of rupees have been ‘unearthed’ in a special audit done on the controversy-prone Delhi and District Cricket Association (DDCA) for financial years 2012-13, 2013-14 and 2014-15, ordered by a Delhi High Court-appointed Administrator at the DDCA.
Unauthorised transfer of money worth crores out of the DDCA accounts by its officials, embezzlement in purchase of match tickets, absence of cash vouchers and related bills/cash memos, multiple payments to vendors for the same work done at the DDCA-owned Feroze Shah Kotla Stadium, bills worth lacs paid without certification, exorbitant and unverifiable expenses by DDCA Directors, and violation of financial rules and regulation awarding work/contracts are some of the areas that DDCA officials have allegedly indulged in, according to the report.
The Delhi High Court had appointed former Supreme Court judge Vikramajit Sen as DDCA Administrator in January this year while hearing a case between the DDCA and the South Delhi Municipal Corporation (SDMC) over an alleged unauthorised construction within the Feroze Shah Kotla Stadium. In February, Sen advertised seeking proposals from “reputed audit companies for providing “external audit” for 2012-2013, 2013-2014 and 2014-2015”. However, it is said that no firm showed interest. Then, in May, Sen advertised again and this time the Delhi-based S. Mathur Co., a firm of chartered accountants, agreed to do the herculean task.
Interestingly, the accounts of the financial years that have been audited includes the financial year 2012-13, when Union Minister Arun Jaitley was DDCA president, and he remained in that position till December 2013, when he opted out of cricket administrator. Jaitley was DDCA president from December 1999 to December 2013 – a total of 14 years.
SP Bansal, who was DDCA라이브 바카라 general secretary at the time, then took over as president in December 2013. During Bansal라이브 바카라 reign, the now-famous alleged unauthorised transfer of funds worth Rs 1.55 crore was made.
Below is the summary of the special audit report by GS Mathur & Co., submitted in the Delhi High Court on October 10, and a copy of which in with 바카라. Now, it remains to be seen what view the court takes in the matter.
