Former Union minister and Supreme Court lawyer Meenakshi Lekhi takes charge as chairperson of the Divyang Cricket Control Board of India, according to reports.
The board says its focus includes expanding opportunities for cricket players with disabilities and building India’s participation in international para-cricket competitions. Both outlets describe the appointment as part of efforts to strengthen the organisation’s role in para-cricket.
While the coverage aligns on who has been appointed and the stated objectives of the board, the reports do not provide additional details such as the start date beyond “taken charge,” the length of the term, or any specific immediate initiatives. The emphasis remains on Lekhi’s appointment and the board’s stated mission to grow the para-cricket ecosystem.
