Three days before the Indian Premier League begins, the Bombay High Court has reprimanded Maharashtra's cricket body for the many litres of water it will use to prepare pitches for the world's richest cricket tournament at a time when large parts of the state are reeling under drought. The Court asked the Mumbai Cricket Association, "How can you waste water like this? Are people more important or IPL?" It even suggested that the matches the state was to host be moved out to another state with abundant water.
