The pursuit of accountability

The BCCI has been coddled with many privileges, and no accountability, says Rohit Mahajan in Outlook India , and the RTI Act might change that.

The BCCI has been coddled with many privileges, and no accountability, says Rohit Mahajan in Outlook India, and the RTI Act might change that.
The BCCI, which has resisted accountability for long — and invited ridicule when it said the Indian team was not an Indian team but a BCCI team — could now be made to bow to the reigning spirit of the day and age — the pursuit of transparency and accountability. The Central Information Commission (CIC), which once ruled in the past that the BCCI is not covered by the RTI Act, is again going to adjudicate on the issue on October 4. The verdict could be different this time.
