BCCI Outside RTI Scope: CIC Overturns 2018 Ruling In Landmark Verdict

The Central Information Commission has delivered a monumental verdict declaring that the Board of Control for Cricket in India does not come under the purview of the Right to Information Act. Overturning its own landmark 2018 directive, the apex transparency watchdog officially ruled that the world’s richest sporting body cannot be classified as a public authority under the law.

The Statutory Basis Of The Exemption

Information Commissioner PR Ramesh issued the definitive order, clarifying that the sports organisation fails to satisfy the structural criteria established under Section 2(h) of the transparency legislation.

The commission emphasized that the sporting body is a private entity operating under the Tamil Nadu Societies Registration Act. It was never created by the Constitution or any parliamentary decree.
