Sports Governance Bill Passes, Excluding BCCI from RTI Act

Imagine the government is making new rules for sports teams.

These rules, called the National Sports Governance Bill, aim to make things fair and open.

One rule said anyone could ask questions about the richest cricket organization in the world, the BCCI, like how they pick players or spend money.

However, a later change in the law said that the BCCI did not need to follow all the rules of transparency.

This is because the BCCI does not get money directly from the government, so the new rules do not affect them.

The government wants all sports teams to follow rules, but the cricket board argues it's a private company and doesn't have to.
