    MUMBAI: RJD chief Lalu Prasad Yadav today demanded that the Indian Premier League (IPL) be closed down.

    ?IPL should be closed,? he said outside Parliament House when asked to react on the spat between Shah Rukh Khan and Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) officials and other controversies surrounding the game.

    The MCA has banned Shah Rukh Khan for five years from entering the Wankhede Stadium.

    MCA president Vilasrao Deshmukh said, "If rules are violated, action will be taken. It does not depend who the individual is. It?s a message to everyone whosoever he or she may be that stern action will be taken if there is any misbehaviour,"

    Meanwhile, former cricketer and BJP MP Kirti Azad has also said that the IPL should be closed. He said that he would go on a fast against the event from 20 May.

    CPI(M) leader Sitaram Yechury questioned the tax exemption to IPL which he feels needs to be probed.
