@rtiindia RTI is a legal right, not a formality.
30 days have passed, yet no reply. More than a month has also passed since the First Appeal, with no response.
Why is RTI being deliberately weakened? If authorities can ignore statutory timelines, how can transparency and accounta

@rtiindia RTI का नया मज़ाक! 📋
कोई भी अधिकारी जवाब देने को राजी नहीं है। उन्हें अच्छे से पता है कि सेकंड अपील में सालों लग जाएंगे और उनका कुछ नहीं बिगड़ेगा। जब कोई डर ही नहीं है, तो जनता से RTI दाखिल करवाने का ड्रामा क्यों?

For RTI users, the practical strategy now is to follow the public money, public permissions and public files. Ask the Ministry, state governments, municipal bodies, police, stadium authorities and tax or sports regulators for the records they hold.

The CIC's 2026 decision is a major setback for direct RTI access to BCCI records. It narrows the 2018 transparency order and returns the law to a strict Section 2(h) test: public function alone is not enough. https://t.co/wuX1XSmZD1

The decision strengthens the legal separation between national sports governance and statutory accountability. Other financially independent sports bodies may cite it to resist RTI, especially where they are registered societies or companies and do not receive substantial grants.

It may also create an uneven transparency map. A small sports federation receiving government grants can be under RTI, while a wealthy body exercising far greater national influence may remain outside RTI because it does not need government money.

That result is uncomfortable but not accidental. The RTI Act was drafted around ownership, control and financing. It was not drafted around monopoly power, public emotion, national representation, or commercial scale.

If BCCI is not a public authority, Section 4(1)(b) does not bind it. It need not publish RTI-style manuals, decision-making channels, rules, budgets, minutes, tenders or employee details under the RTI Act.

The 2026 CIC order should not be overstated.
It does not say BCCI performs no public function. It does not say BCCI is immune from courts. It does not stop Parliament from bringing BCCI under a transparency law.

For citizens, the immediate effect is clear.
You cannot file an RTI directly to BCCI. If u send an RTI to the Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports asking for information held only by BCCI, the appln cannot be transferred under Section 6(3) because BCCI is not a public authority

The 2026 decision turns on three linked findings: lack of government control, financial independence, and a narrow meaning of government funding. These are not casual observations. They are the statutory gates through which any non-government body must pass before it applies

But the order is also open to criticism on three grounds.
First, cricket in India is not an ordinary private market. BCCI selects the national team, controls access to international representation, uses national symbols in substance, and exercises a practical monopoly.

Second, the line between “regulatory permission” and “indirect State support” is not always clean. Security, stadium permissions, tax treatment, public infrastructure, and govt facilitation for international events may not be direct grants, but they are part of the ecosystem

Third, RTI is a transparency statute. When a private body performs exclusive national functions, a purposive reading may justify a higher disclosure burden even if ordinary private entities remain outside RTI.

The counterargument is equally strong: if Parliament wanted every private body performing a public function to be under RTI, Section 2(h) would have said so. Courts and commissions must apply the statute, not repair it.

In Zee Telefilms Ltd. v. UOI, the Supreme Court held by majority that BCCI was not “State” under Article 12 of the Constitution. The Court still recognised that BCCI performs important public functions and that its actions may be tested in writ jurisdiction under Article 226.

On 18 May 2026, the Central Information Commission (CIC) reportedly held that the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is not a “public authority” under Section 2(h) of the Right to Information Act, 2005.

The reported reasons are:
BCCI is a society registered under the Tamil Nadu Societies Registration Act.
It was not established by the Constitution.
It was not created by a law made by Parliament or a State Legislature.
It is not owned by the government.
