Pranab Roy, the son of the late Pankaj Roy, was not called! Who has another identity. Pranab Roy Indian teamFormer cricketer of Former captain of Bengal cricket team. and is also on the Apex Council of CAB as the representative of Indian Cricketers Association.
May 31 is Pankaj Roy’s 98th birth anniversary. CAB organized the late cricketer’s birthday celebration at 5 pm on Sunday. However, everyone who turned up at the lower level of the club house at Eden Gardens at the CAB scheduled time was shocked not to see Pranab Roy. Later it is known that CAB forgot to invite Pranab Roy! CAB President Sourav Gangopadhyay, Treasurer Sanjay Das and Secretary Bablu Kole flew to Ahmedabad on Sunday morning to watch the IPL final. CAB Vice President Nitisharanjan Dutta (Anu) was also not available. Those who appeared after waiting for a while remembered the legend of Bengal. Malyadan is given. Joint Secretary Madan Ghosh was present as the ex-officio. Even after the passage of 70 years, he is still sitting on his chair, pointing the thumb at the rules of the highest court of the country.
When Pranab Roy was contacted, the former Bengal captain told ABP Live Bangla, ‘I have not been told anything by CAB. CAB Joint Secretary Madan Ghosh called me at around 5.15 pm. He asks when I will arrive. I didn’t know anything. Tell him that.’ Pranab Roy also said, ‘I was dishonored on this day last year too. I had to wait for 45 minutes at the CAB to celebrate my father’s birthday.
Why was Pranab Roy not invited? CAB Vice President Nitisharanjan Dutta, who has come under fire for holding the post even after passing the age of 70, said, ‘The messages were sent in the WhatsApp group for Apex Council members. I don’t have Fuchar’s (Pranab Roy’s nickname) number. He seems to be in that group. I thought it might have seen it.’ But Pranab Roy should be invited separately as the son of the late Pankaj Roy? Just as son Abhishek Dalmiya, daughter Vaishali Dalmiya and the entire family were invited on the birth anniversary of late cricket administrator Jagmohan Dalmiya on Saturday, May 30. CAB Vice President said, ‘He is a hundred times. I don’t know exactly what happened.’
Another awkward picture of indifference was also seen. Pankaj Roy’s birthday was celebrated with the same stale flowers that were used on the stage to celebrate Jagmohan Dalmia’s birthday on Saturday. Many flowers are drooping and drooping (pictured below). Seeing that, the storm of condemnation in the field. The question arises, that CAB spends more than Rs.50 lakhs IPLCan the laser show, the company did not show the willingness to buy flowers for a small amount of money to celebrate the birthday of a former star?
