Mumbai: Premal Udani retains Cricket Club of India top post
Premal Udani on Wednesday retained the presidency of the Cricket Club of India (CCI), with 1,746 votes, while his opponent Satyapal Jain managed to get 755 votes. The results of the election to the top post was announced late evening.
Udani took over the reins of the CCI in 2018. The term of the CCI president expires in two years, but s/he can contest for another term. With Wednesday's victory, Udani will now be serving his second term as president of the prestigious SoBo club. "This has shown that members have reposed their faith in me and appreciated the good work in what has been a very tough year for the club, like it has been for everyone. Some of our facilities have reopened according to the guidelines. Priority will be given towards unlocking more facilities as we try to get back to normal, adhering to protocol. Then, we will look ahead," Udani said.

This month, British auction house Christie's will offer the collection of Mr and Mrs John H Gutfreund 834 Fifth Avenue across live and online sales. In the collection spanning fine and decorative art, jewels and books is a copy of Rudyard Kipling's The Jungle Book, illustrated by Paul Jouve and François-Louis Schmied that was completed in 1919. What's interesting is that it contains an original drawing by Jouve in India ink. The book is from the couple's library, and commenting on the apartment, Will Strafford, senior international specialist, European furniture and decorative arts, said, "It is one of the most iconic interiors in New York with each room creating its own individual visual statement."
