Cricket World Cup 2011 a subject to ponder over
We all praise the Indian cricket team for being world champion. But the unabashed distribution of crores of rupees among the cricketers and others is nothing but maniacally diabolical. The delirious step by union and state govts, in doling out money and plots from public exchequer is a crime against nation, The authorities must be punished for squandering poor country’s money on the cricketers who are already millionaires through ads & sponsorships of industrial houses. Are these cricketers national icons for the young generation? Their inebriated brawl in the Caribbean, orgies, dance & drama off field and yesterday filthy daru party in the Taj hotel Bombay to celebrate the win are some of the actions, the country must think about. The cricket body is itself led by corrupt political mafia. What message is there for the nation? Now Jharkhand govt is going to bestow PhD on Dhony. What a joke! What has the govt done for developing sports potential in the country? Why do we lag behind US, China, Europe, Japan and even Iran in medal tally? The answer is we have excelled more in CWG scam than in sports. Why other forms of games and sports are not media-highlighted? It is because the media barons chart course for the public intake. They first create hysteria in favor of cricket for days and then cram rubbish of commercial ads for public consumption. Who is CBDT to waive taxes on ICC and BCCI and individuals; already cash-rich bodies, doing huge business in India? Perhaps poverty and penury of people gives sadistic pleasure to the corrupt leaders.
