Poorna is famous name among the parties and fashion industry has an intimate friend who is also working with IPL- Laila Mahmood. Laila is the step daughter of Royal Challengers owner Vijay Mallya. The CCTV footages later proved that it was Laila who took various files and documents from Modi's hotel room minutes before the IT raid.
Which files she may have transferred from the room? The stories are many . But the most prominent one is about two groups which acted behind the present row in IPL. They are the Videocon group owned by Venugopal Dooth and Adani group of Gowtham Adani from Gujarat. Both the groups were active since the auction for two new teams were begun. It was in public that Modi, NCP leaders and Gujarat CM Narendra Modi came up to support them. Gujarat CM Narendra Modi who is also the president of Gujarat cricket Association is adamant to have a team in Gujarat. Videocon and Adani group also wanted the same, an IPL team centering Ahmadabad. Along with Videocon-Adani group Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor also came to the arena. Saif 's father Mansoor Ali Khan Patoudi is member of IPL governing council. But when Subrato Roy of Sahara came forward to buy one of the two teams, there was no other way out but to give one team. Because for years Sahara is the official sponsor of Indian team. Sahara bagged the Pune based team of 37 crore dollars (Rs 1702 crore). When Dooth-Adani-Saif-Kareena were moving forward for the rest of the one that Rendezvous consortium with the help of Sashi Thaoor came to the lime light. They bagged the team for 33.33 crore dollars (Rs. 1533.33 crore) . Modi took revenge for the same by publicizing the auction details of the Rendezvous. It lead to big-bashing row, as back stage stories of shares owned by Sunanda Pushakar was unveiled.
But in all these what did happened to the auction details of Videocon, Adani groups. While searching for the same it came to know that the documents are not with BCCI. IT officials also not have the same. Laila transferred these documents before raid. But on Wednesday Adani group claimed that the documents are with them. How they got the documents of BCCI. How it is believed that no forgery were done in the documents. In this some more interesting stories came to light. 30% of free equities of Videocon were set aside for Sadanand Sule, husband of Supriya Sule MP, who is the daughter of Shard Pawar and free equities from Adani for Patel family. Both Videocon and Adani denied the same too. Patel's claim that he has enough money even to own a team, and Supriya also denied the allegation. Allegation were raised also against another NCP leader and Maharashtra deputy chief minister Chhagan Bhujpal. The allegation were raised due to the relation of Bhujpal's Mumbai Education trust with Rajastan Royals chairman Manoj Bardey.
Not only NCP leaders but BJP leaders like Arun Jaitely, Narendra Modi and National Conference head Farooq Abdullah were also in support of Modi. If one has to become member of BCCI , he must have trusteeship in any if state cricket board. Modi who lost in Rajasthan cannot return the same state. Rajasthan chief minster Ashok Gehlot also progressing with many cases against Modi. In this time a news gains momentum, as Narendra Modi had offered the secretery post of Gujarat Cricket Board in return to Ahmadabad based IPL team. The IPL chairman post is allotted for five years. In between also these Modi has fights with BCCI president Shashank Manohar. Half of the members in BCCI are against Modi. So this time Modi needs the full support of various IPL team owners. IT public news that Modi's relatives have shares in teams like Rajasthan Royals, Punjab Kings and Kolkata Knight Riders. Bangalore team owner Vijay Mallya and Mumbai team owner Mukesh Ambani are his firends too. So there is no wonder in Modi's attempt to take hold of future teams too. When all the prominent personalities in on stage and off stage becomes his close allies, then there will be no difficulty in running IPL as family business.
