Eden Gardens - Tiff over lease fees between CAB and the defence ministry

There appears to be some heart burn between the Defence Ministry and the CAB over Eden Gardens.

The defence ministry, who are the owners of Eden Gardens,are of the opinion that the annual fees which was about Rs. 27,000/- last year does not reflect the earnings of the CAB.

They are rightly miffed that though the CAB made a killing during the IPL, suspected to be a minimum of Rs. 50 lakhs per match, the CAB is willing to pay only Rs.75000/- that too as a good will gesture.

The present confusion has also brought all modernisations at the Eden Garden's to standstill.

Do you think the defence ministry is greedy?
