Ganguly accepted his position from the board’s electoral officer N Gopalaswami in the presence of the three outgoing CoA members ( Vinod Rai, Diana Edulji and Lt Gen (retd) Ravi Thodge) whom he along with the other four office-bearers replace.
The CoA members took care of the proceedings for the past 33 months.
Ganguly will now serve as the president for the next 9 to 10 months then he will serve the cooling-off period.
