Good news in in the air for race lovers across the country as warring turf clubs have decided to bury the hatchet on the royalty issue. On the sidelines of the Turf Authority of India (TAI) meeting yesterday at Mumbai, Vivek Jain, the newly appointed chairman of the Royal Western India Turf Club (RWITC), offered an olive branch to the retiring chairman of the Bangalore Turf Club (BTC) AC Satish Chandra, by unconditionally reversing the decision to cut off signals of Pune races.

Jain, who was not exactly in sync with the decision to cut off Pune race signals to BTC, confirmed the development to mid-day.
