N Srinivasan was also accused of using his immense clout to get Ashwin beaten up by the police in a Mumbai restaurant in 2012.[14][15][16][17][18]Sports[edit]
He was introduced to cricket administration by former BCCI president A. C. Muthiah.[19] He was the Secretary of the BCCI before becoming the current President, taking over the reins from Shashank Manohar, in 2011. His company India Cements owns Indian Premier League (IPL) franchise team Chennai Super Kings and he is the president of the Tamil Nadu Cricket Association (TNCA).[20] Srinivasan is also the President of the Tamil Nadu Golf Federation and the All India Chess Federation[21]Corporate career[edit]

Srinivasan made a hostile takeover bid to Andhra Pradesh based Raasi Cements in 90's and merged with India Cements.Later he made a bid for Yerraguntla plant of the public sector Cement Corporation of India (CCI) and annexed it to India Cements.Other positions[edit]

Between 1991 and 2006, he was the President of the Cement Manufacturers' Association for five terms and chairman of the board of Governors of the National Council for Cement and Building Materials (NCCBM) for four terms between 1991 and 2006.

He was also a member of the Prime Minister's Council of Trade and Industry (1996–2001). N.Srinivasan was the Sheriff of Madras for two terms during the period 1989 to 1991.Controversies[edit]
Until September 2008, BCCI regulation, Clause 6.2.4 stated that "no administrator of BCCI could have had, directly or indirectly, any commercial interest in the matches or events conducted by the cricket board". Later, after the start of IPL in 2008, the clause was amended to give unfavorable benefit to BCCI members such that they can own stakes in the IPL franchise.N. Srinivasan became the owner of Chennai Super Kings. The case against N. Srinivasan on the grounds of conflict of interest is still pending in the Supreme Court of India.[23]In 2013, under the massive Indian Premier League Spot fixing controversy, N.Srinivasan's son-in-law and CSK team principal Gurunath Meiyappan was arrested by Mumbai Police under the involvement in heavy betting and trading of inside information to bookies.[4] Despite media and national outrage asking for his resignation, he remained defiant.[24] But ultimately, he stepped aside on 2 June 2013 and appointed Jagmohan Dalmiya as the interim president. On 27 September, Supreme Court restrained him from holding the post of BCCI President until its further orders.[25] On 8 October 2013 Supreme Court allows N. Srinivasan to take charge as BCCI President.On 10 February 2014, a report submitted by the retired High Court Chief Justice Mukul Mudgal-led committee, indicted Mr. Srinivasan's son-in-law, Gurunath Meiyappan of illegal betting and passing on sensitive match-related information to bookies during IPL 2013. The 170-page report also stated that Srinivasan's company, India Cements was liable for Meiyappan's actions and that the Chennai Super Kings franchise was in violation of the franchise agreement, which may result in the termination of the Indian Premier League franchise.[26][27][28][29][30] On 21 March, Meiyappan's voice was found to match a tapped phone conversation discussing match fixing activities[31]On 25 March 2014 the Supreme Court of India told N. Srinivasan to step down as BCCI president so that a fair investigation may be conducted.[32][33][34][35][36] The court found it "nauseating" that he should hold on to the post despite various courts censuring him.[10]
On 27th November,2014 the Supreme Court said that N Srinivasan’s conflict of interest was “obvious” as he also owned a team i.e CSK in the IPL. The court also asked BCCI if it was open to have a fresh polls for a new board without N Srinivasan.Investment in Jagan Mohan Reddy corruption cases[edit]
Srinivasan was one of the main investors in several of Jaganmohan Reddy's "suitcase companies" and is a subject of investigation in the Rs. 3000 crore corruption case. It is charged that his India Cements had invested more than a hundred crores in Jagan's Bharti Cement, in return for quid pro quo favours granted while Jagan's father Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddywas the Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh (between 2004 and 2009). The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) is of the opinion that Srinivasan's company, India Cements allegedly invested Rs.140 crore into Jaganmohan's businesses in return for the benefits it received from the then government. He has appeared in front of the special CBI court repeatedly[37][38] in this massive corruption case.[39][40]References[edit]
