"Bill Will Result In Centralisation Of Sports Administration": Congress On National Sports Governance Bill
The Congress on Tuesday slammed the government for "bulldozing" the National Sports Governance Bill, 2025 through the Lok Sabha and claimed that the legislation will result in the "extreme centralisation" of sports administration.
Sharing a post on X, Congress general secretary in-charge communications Jairam Ramesh wrote, "The National Sports Governance Bill, 2025 was bulldozed through the Lok Sabha yesterday and will perhaps be subject to the same treatment in the Rajya Sabha today. The Bill will result in the extreme centralisation of sports administration. And, of course, the BCCI will get most favoured treatment, not subject to any laws of the land like the RTI."
