Differently Abled Cricket Council of India (DCCI) Vice President Sumit Jain has written a letter to BCCI Secretary Devajit Saikia and General Manager (Operations) Abey Kuruvilla alleging that Ravi Chauhan is ‘falsely representing himself as the General Secretary of the Differently Abled Cricket Council of India [DCCI].’

In the letter, a copy of which is with mid-day, Jain has written: “I wish to bring to your notice that Ravi Chauhan, who was formerly serving as the General Secretary of the DCCI as a representative of the Physically Challenged Cricket association of India [PCCAI] has been expelled from the PCCAI. Subsequently, the PCCAI has also resigned from the membership of DCCI. It is pertinent to clarify that membership of DCCI is accorded strictly to associations and not to individuals. Ravi Chauhan’s association with DCCI was purely in his capacity as a representative of PCCAI. Therefore, upon his expulsion from PCCAI, all responsibilities, roles, powers and authorisations vested in him by DCCI automatically stand withdrawn. Accordingly, any request made by Ravi Chauhan on behalf of DCCI must not be entertained under any circumstances.”
