Shah will not be holding the post until the internal enquiry into the matter is completed.
MPCA secretary Narendra Menon was quoted as saying in a press release today that Association's President Jyotiradiya Scindia has accepted Shah's request to this effect.
The 18-year-old cricketer had charged Shah, the convenor of the under-19 selection committee, with attempt to sexually harass her, an allegation denied by Shah.

The girl's father said he has full faith that Scindia will ensure that his daughter gets justice.
