A MASSIVE SCAM IN THE GENTLEMAN'S GAME IN INDIA

Cricket is not a game in India. It is a religion : a secular religion followed by a billion-plus. Sachin Tendulkar is the God of  Cricket. It is true one hundred percent: a model of Professional excellence and Personal probity. A national icon : Perfect and Pure.

In contrast we have a Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) which in fact is a BAND OF CORRUPT AND COVERING -UP INDIVIDUALS : a group of opportunistic politicians , business honchos and other assorted personalities .  They are together for the lust of power and not for the love of cricket.

May 16 , three cricketers were arrested by Delhi Police for Spot-fixing. It was news waiting  to be exposed. Then Mumbai Police entered the scene and startling revelations started pouring in. Gurunath Meiyappan, son-in-law of BCCI Chief N Srinivasan-- CEO and Principal of Chennai Super Kings-- was arrested. With that many shocking information has come in the public domain .IPL is a great cocktail of  spot-fixing, match-fixing, passing insider information, betting,  Bollywood, underworld, money-laundering, sleaze ,and  mafia of all shady characters. N Srinivasan's office did a " smart " operation by changing the twitter profile of Son-in-law to give an impression that Gurunath has no official role in CSK team . Thank God  Twitter has limitations, otherwise son-in-law would have been made NONE-IN-LAW.

Despite all the criticisms against N Srinivasan's continuation as President of BCCI on grounds of  morality, ethics and public accountability, he refuses to quit. It is doubtful whether the enquiry commission of BCCI will be objective and fair. Millions of Indians are starving and yet our political parties have not united to get the Food Security Bill enacted in the Parliament. But Congress , BJP, NCP,National Conference, etc are hand in glove to keep the corrupt BCCI coterie in good shape. Millions of fans pour in billions of money , and this financial clout has made the BCCI bosses blind towards the feelings of the gullible fans who believe that the thrilling " last ball " wins and losses are real.
