The Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) today decided to lift the more than three-year-old entry ban on Bollywood star Shah Rukh Khan. At the same time, the MCA decided not to challenge the BCCI-imposed life ban on tainted player Ankeet Chavan despite a Delhi Court dropping criminal charges against him. Both the decisions were taken at a MCA meeting in Mumbai with vice-president Ashish Shelar being the proposer. Shelar told reporters that the decision to lift the ban imposed on IPL's Kolkata franchise owner Shah Rukh Khan was approved unanimously by the managing committee. He said he made the proposal with the prior approval of MCA President Sharad Pawar. The Bollywood superstar was banned for five years from entering MCA premises, including the Wankhede Stadium, by the Association's Managing Committee, headed by the late Vilasrao Deshmukh, on May 18, 2012. It happened after he was involved in an altercation with the security staff and officials of the cricket body following Kolkata Knight Riders' victory over Mumbai Indians two nights earlier.
