Karnataka Deputy CM’s Stunning Statement On Buying RCB

DK Shivakumar, Deputy Prime Minister in Karnataka, rejected the ongoing rumors that link him to the potential purchase of the iPL Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB).

A few days after winning the IPL title before marriage, the Bangaluru -based costume is linked to a possible sale. UNITED SPIRITS LTD, an IPL company, is a subsidiary of the British Diaageo PLC company.

A recent report issued by Bloomberg stated that the British company explores the possibility of selling all its share in the IPL privilege because it faces organizational pressure from the Federation’s Ministry of Health.

The report also stated that the company wants to take advantage of the high value of the privilege after the historic IPL victory. Do not go well for Diaageo due to the low sales of distinguished alcohol. The News Outlet reported that the company is looking to sell Royal Challengers Bengaluru to free money and focus on its main operations.

I am not a crazy man – DK Shivakumar to buy Royal Condeats Bengaluru (RCB)

Once the reports appear, the name DK Shivakumar began to make tours as a potential buyer. However, the CM deputy in Karnataka has canceled the rumors with the response of humor. He distanced himself from speculation and made it clear that he was not interested in buying RCB.

“I am not a crazy man. I am just a member of the Karnataka Cricket Association since my youth, that’s all. I have no time, although I had offers to be part of the administration … Why do I need RCB? I don’t even drink the royal challenge.”

Shevakomar was recently in the spotlight after the deadly stampede in Bangaluru while celebrating the victory. It was inside the M. Chinnaswamy stadium with the Royal Challengers Bengaluru team when the stampede erupted and left 11 dead and more than 30 injuries.

Meanwhile, Diago also responded to rumors and categorically denied them. In a message to the Bombay Stock Exchange and the Cow Supervision Control Department on Tuesday (June 10), the India Diago official said that the media reports of the sale of RCB were speculation in nature.

“The company would like to clarify that the above media reports are speculative in nature and do not follow any such discussion. This is dedicated to your information and records,” Metal Sangafi, the company’s secretary, told BSE. Cricbuz said.
