IPL final shifted from Eden Gardens for political reasons, claims Minister Arup Biswas

The decision to shift the IPL 2025 final from Kolkata’s iconic Eden Gardens has triggered political outrage, with West Bengal Sports Minister Arup Biswas accusing the BCCI of bias. Speaking at a press conference on Thursday, Biswas claimed the move was politically motivated and not due to weather or logistical concerns, as cited. He insisted Bengal has world-class infrastructure and cricketing legacy, yet continues to be sidelined. "This is not just about a match, it's about respect for Bengal and its people," he said, demanding transparency in BCCI’s decision-making process.
