The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) announced today that it would step in to resolve a governance crisis threatening cricket in Arunachal Pradesh.
BCCI’s intervention comes after reports of administrative paralysis within the Arunachal Cricket Association, which has stalled the development of local talent and the organization of state‑level tournaments.
The BCCI has agreed to appoint an interim committee to oversee the state association, provide financial assistance, and ensure that the association adheres to the national cricketing framework.
Officials from the Arunachal Cricket Association expressed gratitude for the support and pledged to cooperate fully with the BCCI’s directives to restore normalcy and foster growth of the sport in the region.
