NewsX: Sources are telling NewsX that to deflect the attention from BCCI president N. srinivasan, an attempt is being made to pull the plugs on former IPL boss Lalit Modi.

A committe that was set up 3 years ago to probe charges on lalit Modi is suddenly being revived. Sources tell us that this is being done as pasrt of a larger conspiracy to shift the focus away from Srinivasan and his son-in-law Gurunath Meiyappan.
