New Delhi, 18/5: The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) will not fall under the Right to Information (RTI) regime, as it is not a ‘public authority’ set up by any law or has any substantial financing by the government, the Central Information Comission(CIC) said.
The order by Information Commissioner PR Ramesh came after the Madras High Court “remitted back” the issue to the CIC in September 2025 while hearing an appeal filed by the BCCI against a CIC order in October 2018 that held the cricketing body as a public authority.
