Chhetri was prompt in his reply as he said that he is a 'Bangalore boy' and would favour Royal Challengers Bangalore in that debate. 'I'm a Bangalore boy. That should answer your question,' Chhetri said.

    The safety of citizens is of utmost importance, says Rijiju

    "After April 15, the government will come up with new advisory. BCCI is a body that looks after cricket. It is not the question of the sporting event alone, but a question of the safety of citizens. Such events include thousands of spectators," Rijiju said.
