India's law enforcement agencies have informed the BCCI that there may be security issues in hosting India-Pakistan matches during Navratri. They requested the Board of Cricket in India (BCCI) to postpone the matche. A decision in this regard may come in the BCCI meeting tomorrow.
Navratri is an important festival in Gujarat. The festival lasts for a week. Local people will celebrate this festival during Navratri. There is a question of their safety. And if the India-Pakistan match is organized at this time, it will become very difficulty for the law and order forces to provide impeccable security.
There will already be tight security during World Cup cricket. There will be more security in the India-Pakistan match. The crowd of local and foreign people will increase in Ahmedabad. So the law and order forces have asked BCCI to consider whether this match can be organized after Navratri.
A BCCI official told the Indian Express abouts this, 'There may be a problem with organizing a high-voltage match between India and Pakistan during Navratri. Because thousands of visitors from home and abroad will come for this match. We are considering a few options. The decision will come soon.
If this match is postponed from Ahmedabad after the schedule of the World Cup, then the visitors will face a big problem. Many have booked hotels and air tickets ahead of this match. If the match is postponed, they will have to bear the suffering of this booking again.
