Lalit Modi Slams BCCI Over Rajasthan Royals Manager Fine
17 Apr
Summary
- Lalit Modi criticized BCCI for a lenient penalty on a Rajasthan Royals manager.
- The manager used a phone in the dugout, violating PMOA protocols.
- The manager received a ₹1 Lakh fine and a warning, sparking Modi's outrage.

IPL founder Lalit Modi has publicly condemned the BCCI's handling of a recent infraction by Rajasthan Royals manager Romi Bhinder. Bhinder was penalized with a ₹1 Lakh fine and a warning after an anti-corruption investigation found him guilty of using a mobile phone in the team dugout.
This penalty has drawn sharp criticism from Lalit Modi, who took to social media to express his dissatisfaction. He argued that the punishment was too lenient and advocated for a zero-tolerance policy, suggesting that a mere fine is insufficient to deter such violations. Modi believes the BCCI and IPL governing council are protecting individuals rather than enforcing strict disciplinary measures.
