Carrom, Chess, Badminton- these are "sports"? Rugby, soccer, basketball, tennis or track and field- even volleyball- now-ah thats-ah sports-ah.

Govt gets tough after Dhoni, Harbhajan snub Padma awards
by Anand YNI on Apr 21, 2009 11:24 PM

Who cares about the action and attitude of the govt? In any case, these awards are worth their place in the dustbin.

why is an award after Rajiv Gandhi name
by Indian on Apr 21, 2009 11:17 PM

Why is there a national award after Rajiv Gandhi name?
what is Rajiv Gandhi's contribution to Sport?
If Rajiv Ganhi was popular, then he was also unpopular. Thats why he lost an election

Another Revolution
by Obama on Apr 21, 2009 11:00 PM

When we sent British out, we called the act as revolution. A long journey starts from a single step. Shall we campaign in this forum to Send All the Underserved Candidates in higher post out through propaganda. First thing first. Let us send Pratiba OUT through continuous campaign. I am sure Dhoni and Harbajan will join us after IPL. Common Rediff Readers. ....

Dhoni has got more Fans by this act
by Obama on Apr 21, 2009 10:55 PM

In movies, we enjoy hero kicking the villain, all disshuum disshuum. Becasue in real life, we also want to hit the villains around us. But we are common people. We can NOT do that. But when a hero does that in a movie, we appreciate it. Now Dhoni and Harbajan has done IT, what we wanted to do. We do not like Pratiba to sit in our country' president post. We want a better candidate. No ONE likes her in that post.

Congress can devalue the office of President by installing an unknown congress worker in that chair. No problem.

Congress can devalue the election commissionar office by putting a partisan chawla there and appointing Gill as minster. No problem.

Congress can devalue awards by showering them on Teestas and Akshayas. No problem.

But if Dhoni and Bhajji skip the ceremony, there is a problem.

A sportsman is hunderd times more precious than a politician. A sportsman brings glory to the country and does not steal public money.

Padma Awards
by MUKUL GARG on Apr 21, 2009 10:37 PM

In any case, Padma Awards have been devalued considerably. Popular belief is that a number of Padma Awards have been decided on political considerations.

Let the govt care about more pressing problems
by Kabadan Y on Apr 21, 2009 10:32 PM

The cricketers are always chased upon for these useless awards. Why would they care; A cricket player at Dhoni's level has enough to live happily for the next 2 or 3 generations; Having this stupid title will add zero value to their fame and they will never be recognized by these award names; rather by their superior deeds on the cricket ground.
