Minister of State for Youth Affairs and Sports with independent charge, Kiren Rijiju reacted on the ongoing speculations that BCCI (Board of Control for Cricket in India) will come under RTI (Right to Information Act, 2005). Rijiju said, “There should be transparency in every sports organisation and federation.” On being asked whether RTI would be the next step for BCCI after the sports body came under National Anti-Doping Agency (NADA) ambit. He said, “Whatever public money we have or whatever fund we organise or arrange needs to be managed in a proper manner.” He also talked about adoption of SAI centres and said, “Some of the sports centres owned by the Sports Authority of India can be taken over by security forces like the Indian army or CRPF for better management.”
