Frequent Litigation Over NSF Elections: The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) will come under the National Sports Governance Bill 2025, set to be tabled in the ongoing monsoon session of the Parliament, ministry sources told IANS on Tuesday.

This will be mandatory for all the federations, including the BCCI to come under NSP, sports ministry sources confirmed. The BCCI was the only prominent sports body which did not come under government regulations.

It also brings into question whether BCCI President Roger Binny will continue at the helm, as BCCI constitution allows office bearers to continue till the age of 70 – the 1983-WC winner turned 70 on July 19 – but with the the Annual General Meeting scheduled to take place in September, it is still to be seen whether he will remain at the top post or will senior vice-president Rajeev Shukla take over.
