Harbhajan Singh was on Saturday slapped with a show cause notice by the Board of Control for Cricket in India asking why disciplinary action should not be taken against him for allegedly slapping Sreesanth in Mohali.
Harbhajan has been asked to respond by Monday, BCCI Chief Administrative Officer Ratnakar Shetty said.
"At this point of time, we have issued a show cause notice. Harbhajan is a contracted player of BCCI... BCCI itself has a code of conduct for players. And BCCI Secretary Niranjan Shah has issued a show cause notice and he has to respond by Monday," Shetty said.
