Scindia wants Srinivasan to step down while probe is on

After much silence, India's top politicians associated with the Board of Control for Cricket in India, are speaking on N. Srinivasan, who is under pressure to quit as Board president after Gurunath Meiyappan, his son-in-law and a member of the Chennai Super Kings team, was arrested for alleged links with match-fixers. Speaking to NDTV, Jyotiraditya Scindia, chairman of the finance committee of BCCI said: "Let me say this that I am not assuming or saying that anyone is guilty. But considering the fact that we do need to cleanse the sport in every single meaning of the word, I do believe that it would be in the fitness of things if Mr Srinivasan did step aside until this matter reached a conclusive end in terms of an inquiry."
