NEW DELHI: Lambasting the DDCA for deciding to install a statue of its late former President Arun Jaitley at the Feroz Shah Kotla ground, spin legend Bishan Singh Bedi has asked the body to remove his name from the spectators stand, named after him in 2017.
Lashing out at the Delhi and District Cricket Association s (DDCA) culture, which he alleged promotes nepotism and puts administrators ahead of cricketers , Bedi also renounced his membership of the body.
He made the demand in a scathing letter addressed to DDCA President Rohan Jaitley, the son of the late politician, who was a minister in the BJP-led NDA government and died last year owing to multiple health issues.
