The draft Bill which would cover all sports bodies, including the Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association (HPCA) has been cleared by the law department and an Ordinance might be promulgated, official sources said.
The Act, passed in 2005, was challenged by HPCA contending that it did not come under the purview of the Act.
The case was pending in the court when the BJP government returned to power and repealed the Act in 2008.
"When government departments are covered under RTI why the sports bodies, especially HPCA which have been given lands worth crores of rupees on lease of Rs 1 should not be brought under the RTI Act," Singh asked.

Virbhadra rubbished the charge that the government was acting with political vendetta against HPCA.
"FIRs have been registered after initial probe by Vigilance and Anti-corruption Bureau and all these charges were included in the charge-sheet submitted by the Congress (while they were in opposition) to President of India in August 2012," he said.
