BCCI had trouble sending money to players, accounts open under Jan Dhan Yojana

New Delhi : The Board of Control for Cricket in India, ie BCCI, had trouble issuing prize money to junior players whose bank account is opened under Jan Dhan Yojana. A BCCI official said on the condition of confidentiality that he had trouble giving the prize money to six junior cricketers as his bank account was opened under the Jan Dhan Yojana. A BCCI official has explained why this has happened.


The BCCI official has said that a maximum amount of Rs 50 thousand can be deposited in accounts under Jan Dhan Yojana. This is the reason that BCCI had trouble transferring money, because the money of half a dozen players was more than 50 thousand and only 50 thousand rupees can be transferred to Jan Dhan account at one time.

The BCCI official told, "One and a half lakh rupees were to be given to the cricketers of all age groups who received the award at the annual ceremony of BCCI. The prize money was transferred to the senior players immediately after the ceremony on January 11. But the transaction of Rs 1.5 lakh in the account of five junior cricketers was rejected.

In such a situation, only 50 thousand rupees. Can be collected. " After this the BCCI spoke to its bank (Bank of Maharashtra) and the banks with accounts of all the players were contacted and tried to resolve the issue.

The only solution to this issue was to convert Jan Dhan accounts into savings accounts, with no upper limit on cash deposits. The board official said, "Actually, the match fees of junior cricketers are very low. Under-16 players get Rs 10,000 per match (Rs 2500 per day) and under-19 players get Rs 40,000 (Rs 10,000 per day). . "
