Dur­ing the match, around 6 pm, the Pres­i­dent slipped and fell, hit­ting the right side of his head on the pave­ment.

He was giv­en med­i­cine for the pain and swelling, but when the swelling in­creased, Car­mona de­cid­ed to go to the St Clair Med­ical Cen­tre, where he was kept overnight.He re­turned to work on Thurs­day and was giv­en the re­port of the com­mis­sion of en­quiry in­to the events sur­round­ing the col­lapse of the Hin­du Cred­it Union Co-op­er­a­tive So­ci­ety. The re­port was sub­mit­ted by com­mis­sion­er Sir An­tho­ny Col­man.
