The Bombay High Court has directed BCCI to hold all matches outside Maharashtra. After 30th of April all the matches wiil be played outside the state. This is view of the severe drought conditions prevailing in Maharashtra.
BCCI has now left with no option but to comply with the ruling. Watering of cricket pitches were a major concern. The amount of water sprayed is being seen as a criminal waste.
According to BCCI it has supplied 40 lakh litres of water per day to stadiums for IPL. Compare it with the amount of water being sent to Latur in trains.
Court has rightly reprimanded the BCCI. Cash rich BCCI should donate from its coffers to the drought hit region. It has been shirking from it's responsibily uptill now. Now is the time for BCCI chieftains to show their deshbhakti and commitment to nation.
