New Delhi, June 6: The Communist Party of India-Marxist (CPI-M) today demanded a Joint Parliamentary Committee (JPC) to probe the affairs of the Indian Premier League (IPL) cricket.

Pointing out that the wide ramifications of the IPL affairs involve large-scale money transactions and illegal activities, it said: "The manner in which the BCCI (Board of Control for Cricket in India) and the IPL body have conducted the bids and the franchising have raised a host of issues.

"The matter cannot be disposed off with some routine enquiries conducted by agencies under the finance ministry. What is required is a full-fledged probe. This should be done by a Joint Parliamentary Committee," the party said in a statement after a two-day politburo meet here. (IANS)
