Eden Gardens will remain under the state government’s control from September 25 to October 15 to facilitate preparations for the October 10 programme. The Special Protection Group (SPG) will also take charge of security at the venue ahead of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s expected visit.
“Whatever the state government and the honourable chief minister direct us to do, we will follow it. The Prime Minister is also supposed to attend,” Ganguly said.
Bengal Move Ranji Trophy Opener Against Delhi to Kalyani
The CAB has shifted Bengal’s opening Ranji Trophy match against Delhi from Eden Gardens to Kalyani. The game is scheduled to begin on Sunday, October 11, and the state association has informed the BCCI about the venue change.
“Ranji Trophy matches have been held in Kalyani on several occasions earlier. There is the Jadavpur University ground as well. As far as the October 10 event is concerned, senior officials of the Sports Department will meet us in the next few days and inform us about the details of the programme,” Das told RevSportz.
“I still don’t know who will come and what will happen. But as far as I know, if there is any event where the Prime Minister is attending, for security reasons we have to abide by the protocol. Once the Sports Department informs us, we will get a clearer picture,” he said.
