BCCI Ombudsman Justice D K Jain has sought a written submission from Sourav Ganguly after Saturday's hearing, even as the Board put its weight firmly behind the former India skipper in the alleged conflict of interest case.
Three Bengal-based cricket fans -- Bhaswati Shantua, Abhijeet Mukherjee and Ranjit Seal -- had alleged that Ganguly's duty as Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB) president is in direct conflict with his dual role as an advisor of IPL franchise Delhi Capitals as well as Cricket Advisory Committee member.
The BCCI termed that the former India captain's alleged conflict of interest comes under the 'tractable category' which could be sorted without much fuss and with "full disclosure".
According to the BCCI's constitution clause 38 (3) (a): "Tractable conflicts are those that are resolvable or permissible or excusable through recusal of the individual concerned and - or - with full disclosure of the interest involved."
When asked if there is a timeline, he said: "Of course, there is a timeline. I can't tell you what happened as the matter is sub-judice. But the order will come out soon."
