'I Took 10 lakhs' : outlookindia.com: "Mainly because I am from minority community. I am being victimised and targeted...specially some ex-cricketers raising fingers against me to settle their personal grudges and they can�t stand the idea that a person from the minority community should be in the saddle of Indian Cricket specially when I have remained there for 16 years. I appeal to all the public not to be swayed away by the misinformation about me spread by the media, vilification campaign carried out against me in order to dislodge me and to create dispathy (sic) in the minds of the public. I am not the man who declared 16 crore in the vdis Scheme. "
