It was indeed a great honour for the country to lift the World cup after 28 years.It was certainly worth paying the indian players by BCCI a handsome amount for their for their immense hardwork and sportsmenship which has gotten glory for our country.But now arises the question,why has the government decided to faliciate few players with additional rewards?Why are they being given so much respect and honour? Why was all this not granted to the medal winners of commonwealth games?Was that not a matter of concern or worth a huge reward?If government really has that much money,why is it not taking a quick initiative to revamp the life of poor,poverished people who do not possess the basic amenities of life.Free land,money to the slum people would have been appreciable and indeed a true way of expressing the gaeity for thecountry's victory,instead of giving it to the players in addition what BCCI has paid.
Will we anytime get answer to these 'why' factors?
Hey Preeti, Good blog to start with!I second you on this as this is the reason as to why other games are slowly diminishing. New generation is wanting to play cricket and earn money which makes sense. But then what is happening to other games?Its high time we replace hockey with cricket as our national game. . . In the name of national game , there is no motivation to them . But then all these apart, cricket is one thing which unites India so if you see , sometimes its worth the mmoney...
