Here is the list of all contenders for HCA elections

HYDERABAD: A panel led by Entrepreneur and sports administrator Arshnapally Jagan Moham Rao has filed nominations for the Hyderabad Cricket Association (HCA) elections that will be held on October 20, 2023.

Apart from Jagan, K Anil Kumar, PL Srinivas and Amarnath too have filed for the HCA president’s post from various panels. The panel led by Jagan Mohan is called United Members of HCA. It would have P Sridhar vying for vice president's post, R Harinarayana as secretary, former cricketer Noel David as joint secretary, CJ Srinivas as treasurer and Ansar Ahmed Khan vying for councilor post.

A HCA Good Governance panel, led by Anil Kumar, fielded Daljeet Singh for vice president's post, V Agam Rao for secretary post while T Basavaraj would contest for joint secretary post. P Mahendra and Vinod Ingle would be in fray for treasurer and councilor posts.

The HCA panel would have PL Srinivas fighting for the president’s post while C Babu Rao and RM Bhasker are in fray for vice-president and secretary posts respectively. Rohit Agarwal (joint secretary), Gerard Carr (treasurer) and DAJ Walter (councilor) are the other panel members.

Another panel, led by G Amarnath as their president, would have G Srinivas Rao and G Devraj as vice president and secretaries respectively while C Sanjeev Reddy, Chitti Sreedhar and Sunil Kumar would contest for treasurer, joint secretary and councilor posts.

The scrutiny of the nominations would be done on Saturday while the last date for withdrawal of nominations is October 16. The last elections for the HCA were held in September, 2019 which was won by former Indian cricket captain Mohammed Azharuddin and his panel. However, his term was over in September 2020 and elections were due since then. However, the impasse over the HCA elections forced the Supreme Court to appoint a single-member panel of L Nageswar Rao to oversee the election process and conduct elections, in February this year.
