trackback

India has lost the bid for the 2014 Asian games. The reason that is doing the rounds is that we were a divided lot. Suresh Kalmadi starts cribbing that Mani Shankar Iyer has won!!

I am not an avid sports lover but I am convinced that if sports in India has to progress the only way forward is to remove the politicians from our sports associations.

Right from Hockey to Athletics these politicians are ruling the roost. All they want is to make some money out of sports. The experienced professionals are pushed to the periphery.

We need people who played the game to be a part of relevant sports body so that proper decisions can be taken.

Look at cricket!!! Former world champs do not even make it to the super eights!!! The CEO of BCCI is tring to juggle between agriculture and cricket…what better results can we expect!!!
