New Delhi: Delhi & Districts Cricket Association (DDCA) treasurer Ravinder Manchanda on Tuesday said they are mulling legal recourse against BJP MP Kirti Azad, who has alleged that some of the prominent officials have been allegedly involved in financial bungling.
"Kirti Azad has been making baseless allegations against the association for the past few days. He is maligning the image of some of our prominent members. Also he is only showing the documents released by us. Since he has made false allegations, the senior members strongly feel that we should be taking legal recourse and file a defamation suit against Kirti," Manchanda said.

"For the past few days we have released all the documents in the media. We have made point by point rebuttal against all the allegations levelled by him. We have released all the documents and break-ups of the financial spendings," Manchanda said.
