INDIAN PREMIER LEAGUE (IPL) NEWS: The Home Ministry’s meeting with the Indian Premier League (IPL) organisers today did not conclude with any decision on the dates of the T20 tournament, which is scheduled to be held in April and May this year.
The fate of the second season of IPL hung in balance with the Home Ministry which bluntly said to the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) that providing spare central forces for the Twenty20 tournament will not be possible.
The Home Ministry expressed concerns and limitations in providing para-military forces for the IPL because of the Lok Sabha elections in April and May.
This was conveyed in a meeting of a three-member BCCI delegation with Special Secretary (Internal Security) Raman Srivastava.
The meeting was held for 90 minutes. BCCI Secretary N Srinivasan was asked to re-work out on dates of IPL matches in consultation with the states where the IPL matches are to be played.
