Former Maharashtra left-arm spinner Anil Walhekar, currently fighting for cricketers, has been on hunger strike for the last 10 days at the Maharashtra Cricket Association’s (MCA) old office at Nehru Stadium in Pune.
“I have been requesting the MCA for several years to follow the Lodha Committee reforms properly. However, I was not getting any response and hence went on hunger strike. The MCA officials had submitted the wrong constitution to the Charity Commissioner. This is an illegal body and they should immediately resign from their posts,” Walhekar told mid-day from Pune on Wednesday.
