  OCA poll dates to be announced on July 13
09 Jul 2008
 

Orissa Cricket Association is set to announce the dates for its elections after the council meeting to be held at Barabati Stadium, Cuttack on July 13. According to OCA secretary Asirbad Behera, the council meeting will also discuss issues related to the audit report and the budget for the year 2008-09. Prior to the council meeting, meetings of the finance and scrutiny committees will be held. The council meeting is expected to witness a hot debate on the budget, which includes a Rs 56 crore renovation work of the Barabati Stadium.

 

Though OCA is taking necessary steps to complete the renovation work, which includes construction of a VIP stand and expansion of gallery, before two important engagements in October-Novermber, rain has delayed the process. ``The construction company has assured to handover the renovated stadium before the Challenger Trophy Tournament to be held here from October 14. It will be followed by the India-England one-day international in November third or last week,```` said Behera. ``Despite certain obstacles, the elections will be held in August or September so that the new body would not face any difficulty in organising the two important events in a smooth manner,```` he added. The scrutiny committee will finalise the list of 152 valid voters for the ensuing poll after verifying the names of the representatives sent by affiliated units of OCA.
