Former India National Cricket Team off-spinner Harbhajan Singh, who made his debut in 1998 and played 103 Tests, 236 ODIs and 28 T20Is for India National Cricket Team, is the chief advisor of the Punjab Cricket Association (PCA). He has alleged that illegal activities are being committed by a few office-bearers at Punjab Cricket Association (PCA).

Former cricketer Harbhajan Singh, who is a Member of the Parliament at the Rajya Sabha, has sent letters to PCA members and district units of the body, however, he didn’t mention the name of the office-bearers in his letters. Also, Harbhajan has sent a detailed letter about malpractice at PCA to CM Bhagwant Mann and Aam Aadmi Party’s national convenor Arvind Kejriwal.

“The crux of the matter is PCA is trying hard to induct 150 members with voting rights to tilt the balance in their favour and these inductions are being done without assent of apex council/general body or without consulting the Chief Advisor (Singh),” he wrote in his letter .

“Therefore, these are against BCCI constitution, guidelines of PCA and violations of transparency and ethical norms of the sports bodies.

“To hide their illegal activities, they are not organising formal meetings of the PCA and are taking all decisions suo moto which serve their selfish motives,” he further wrote, as quoted by PTI.

Speaking to PTI, Harbhajan Singh opened up on this matter and revealed that he “has been repeatedly kept in the dark about many policy decisions” at PCA.

“I have been receiving complaints for a good 10-15 days about how the top functionary is going about its job. I have been appointed chief advisor and has been repeatedly kept in the dark about many policy decisions.

“Today, I was told that they have already taken membership subscription amount from 60- to 70 people. The process needs to be stopped immediately. I had no option but to individually write to the members and also inform the Chief Minister,” he said.
