New Delhi, Oct 15 (Ians) The Supreme Court on Thursday gave the green signal to the new dates of elections of the Delhi and District Cricket Association (Ddca) next month after the warring factions struck an out-of-court settlement and submitted affidavits to that effect. The new polling dates are November 5-8.
Returning Officer Navin B. Chawla, based on an opinion from Ddca Ombudsman Justice (Retired) Deepak Verma, had countermanded the elections for six posts after both felt that the process had been "polluted beyond redemption" due to politics within the Ddca.
The rescheduled process will start from where it was stopped dramatically on October 10, when candidates were to withdraw their nominations till 3 pm. But before the deadline could expire, the Returning Officer announced the countermanding of elections, at 2.15 pm.
Now, the candidates who had filed nomination papers can withdraw their candidature on October 17, between 11 am and 1 pm...

New Delhi, Oct 14 (Ians) Five of the six positions in the Delhi and District Cricket Association (Ddca), for which re-scheduled elections are likely to take place next month, could have direct contest between two groups after the talks of finding consensus candidates failed. Only Rohan Jaitley is set to be elected unopposed as president.
On Wednesday, the new dates for the elections, which were "countermanded" this month because the process had been "polluted beyond redemption", were reportedly finalised -- from November 5-8 -- and these would be presented during a hearing in the Supreme Court on Thursday.
While all groups have agreed to the name of Rohan Jaitley, son of late Ddca president Arun Jaitley, they have failed to reach an agreement so far on the other five seats -- treasurer's and four directors' posts.

OTTThe series has too many distractions and plot entanglements to keep us invested in the ‘hostages’ and their safety for 12 long episodes. Saraswati DatarIt is worth exploring why shows streaming on Ott platforms are dropping shows with over 10 episodes these days. Hostages Season 2, now streaming on Disney+Hotstar, is 12 episodes long, and a laborious watch. Ironically a stressful situation like a hostage drama should have been tightly edited and kept to an engaging single digit number of episodes. But sadly, creators Applause Entertainment and Banijay Asia Productions stretch the sequel endlessly. Season 2 picks up exactly where Season 1 ends after Prithvi (Ronit Bose Roy) successfully kidnaps Chief Minister Kl Handa (Dalip Tahhil), who we realise is Prithvi’s wife Saba’s biological father. Saba needs a bone marrow transplant to save her life and Handa is the only one who can help. Season 1 saw Prithvi take Dr Meera’s (Tisca Chopra...
