The IPL tournament may be reduced to 27 Days after security concern and Election date clash. With the Centre unwilling to bend on security concerns and states cautious about underwriting policing, the highprofile IPL T20 tournament may well be cut to less than a month with matches being held during a 27-day window in May, by when two of the five phases of polls would be over.
The government has clearly indicated its reluctance to allow IPL to be held in April, pointing to the Election Commission’s requirements for paramilitary and the need to maintain reserves. It has also made it clear that states hosting IPL matches will have to give specific undertakings that they are prepared to provide requisite security.
