0

The Goa Cricket Association (GCA) on Sunday expelled its former president Dayanand Narvekar who is accused of misuse of funds from the primary membership.

 

The Special General Body of GCA at its meeting held in Porvorim announced Narvekar’s ouster after a voice vote of 93/3. 96 clubs and life members attended the meeting.

Narvekar had been found guilty of alleged financial irregularities, misuse of funds and impropriety by the Managing Committee which met on May 10, said GCA president Vinod Phadke.

In all 96 clubs and life members attended the meeting to discuss these grounds with Narvekar across the table.

Denying the allegations, Narvekar said the then Executive Committee had approved the balance sheet detailing utilisation of funds.

“All allegations against me are false and are levelled without any evidence. I did not receive any notice regarding any irregularities and misuse of funds,” he told reporters.

Narvekar said he had placed all relevant documents and expenditure before the then Executive Committee and the Managing Committee too had approved them in the General Body meeting of the Goa Cricket Association.

On his son’s expulsion as Ranji player by GCA for allegedly forging his birth certificate, Narvekar said, “It was a clerical mistake.”

The Goa Cricket Association (GCA) had in July expelled Ganeshraj Narvekar for six years after he was accused of forging a birth certificate to play in junior level tournaments.

Narvekar demanded that the GCA should be brought under the ambit of RTI Act.

“I live cinema, eat cinema and breathe cinema. Cinema means devotion, excitement, suspense and family time”, said actor Akshay Kumar while inaugurating the 43rd edition of the Iternational Film Festival of India.

The IFFI  took off to a grand start today with Bollywood superstar Akshay Kumar inaugurating the cinematic extravaganza that celebrates the 100 years of Indian cinema over the next 10 days.

Recalling his early connection to cinema and how his family skipped meals to buy movie tickets, the 45-year-old actor said it was incredible that the country was celebrating the 100-year-old cinematic legacy at IFFI.

“This international film festival is an occasion to remember what cinema is all about. Let me start by telling what cinema means to me. Cinema means to me emotion, excitement, suspense but most important what it means to me is family time.

“When I was a kid every weekend me, my sister, my mom and my day, we would go without lunch every single Saturday of every month so that at night my family could afford four tickets and four samosas and four mango stick ice creams,” Akshay said.

The 45-year-old actor said it is because of his father that his choice of movies largely depend on what the masses want.

“Religiously to this date I treat my family on Saturdays but fortunately I don’t have to skip lunch… It is our biggest connection in life. So I owe my entire life’s happiness to Indian cinema,” Akshay said.

The actor asked the nearly 2000 strong gathering to stand silently for a minute to remember his father-in-law Rajesh Khanna, Yash Chopra, Dev Anand, A K Hangal, Ashok Mehta and Shiv Sena leader Bal Thackeray.

Polish director Krzysztof Zanussi, 73, received a standing ovation from the audience as he was conferred with the Lifetime Achievement award by Information and Broadcasting minister Manish Tewari.

In responsne to the emotional appeal made by Akshay, the whole audience stood up in two-minute silence to pay tributes to the film personalities who passed out this year as well as Shiv Sena Supremo Bal Thackeray.
