Union Sports Minister Kiren Rijiju today welcomed the decision of Board of Control for Cricket in India to come under the ambit of National Anti-Doping Agency (NADA), terming it a major step towards clean and transparent governance in sports.

Mr Rijiju termed the development as a major positive turn of events. He said government does not want any issues or matter to remain unresolved. All the differences must be resolved amicably because we believe in clean and transparent governance in sports in the interest of the games and sports persons. 
 
Having stalled the ministry's near decade long attempts to bring BCCI under the NADA fold, the Board finally relented yesterday, a move that could have far-reaching implications in the near future.
