Modi may face same choice as Tharoor: Scoot or boot

The die has been cast for Lalit Modi. It is no longer a matter of whether. It is just a matter of when.

Even as the government launched a multiple-agency probe into the Indian Premier League (IPL), the mood in the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) too is against the IPL chief. And the defining day for him could be April 26 ? he may either have to resign or be sacked that day.
Why April 26? Because the BCCI president has asked him to convene a meeting of the IPL governing council that day. Modi has not responded yet. If he doesn’t, BCCI president Shashank Manohar may invoke his special powers. Manohar will also be asked to take charge as the IPL chairman from that day.
