CNN Central News & Network-ITDC India Epress/ITDC News Bhopal: Discussion has intensified in recent days on social media and some platforms over the date of birth of Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) president Mithun Manhas. The controversy has emerged after differences were seen in information related to his age and date of birth across various public sources. Some reports mention his date of birth as October 12, 1979, while other places have made different claims about his age.
Mithun Manhas has been a well-known player in Indian domestic cricket and was elected the 37th president of the BCCI in September 2025. Extensive information is available about his cricket career and administrative role, but varying details linked to his date of birth have raised questions.
However, the BCCI has so far not issued any official clarification on the date-of-birth controversy. Most available records list his date of birth as October 12, 1979, while some reports mention only his age, which has led to confusion.
Experts believe clarity and transparency are necessary in personal details related to individuals holding public positions. If any formal complaint or inquiry emerges on the matter, the institutions concerned may clarify the factual position. For now, the controversy is mainly limited to inconsistencies visible in public information, and no official inquiry or decision has been confirmed.
