LAHORE, Dec 19 (APP):A number of clubs of East Zone Cricket Association (EZCA) have demanded fresh election of President of
the body as they were deprived of taking part in the election
process.
In a letter addressed to the Pakistan Cricket Board’s Deputy
Election Commissioner Ahmad Shahzad Farooq Rana and made available
to APP here on Tuesday, the clubs stated that the Secretary of EZCA,
Ayaz Khan did not inform them about the letter written by him (deputy election commissioner) regarding the election process for the slot of President of the Zone.
“As per instructions of the PCB, Ayaz was bound to circulate
the PCB election schedule regarding the election of the EZKA which
he did not, leaving the field wide open for the un-opposed election
of his favourite candidate, Najaf Khan as the President of the Zone,”
they said.
“We have been deprived of our rights of participating in the
elections through a conspiracy hatched by the Secretary EZCA,”
they added.
They have appealed the PCB to declare the election of Najaf
Khan ‘illegal’ and to announce the fresh election of the President
under the laid down criteria enabling them to exercise their
right in the election process.
