BCCI General Manager RP Shah resigns from his post

RP Shah resigned from his position as BCCI General manager citing his age as the reason.

RP Shah, one of the three General Managers of BCCI, on Saturday resigned from his post citing his age as a “reason”.

Shah was the General Manager (Commercial) and was considered to be one of the big decision makers in board’s commercial interest.

“Yes, I have resigned from my post. The reason is that I am 61 years old. I had taken the decision back in October. I live in Pune and was finding it really hectic to



regularly travel to Mumbai. There was no pressure or query from the COA. I shared a good rapport with CEO Rahul Johri and the CFO (Santosh Ragnekar). Rahul wanted me to continue but I requested him to relieve me,” Shah confirmed the news of his resignation to PTI.

While some in the BCCI circles perceive that Shah’s decision have come in the wake of Committee of Administrators (COA) looking into each and every aspect of the board’s functioning, Shah said that it was purely a personal decision taken four months back.
