there is not indication of any team from North East. Is North East not a part of India? or IPL is only for rich why not BCCI gets one IPL, completely supported by BCCI from NE region.

False propaganda with hidden agenda
by Krishnakumar Narayanan on Apr 14, 2010 10:57 PM  | Hide replies

Attitude of Mr. Tharoor is doubtable, true. Tweet ways are not correct too. But, he is not smart enough to be a corrupt politician. From the very fact (which is so far unnoticed!) that Lalit Modi is a favourite of both BJP and D-company, it is very well implied that who is making false propaganda in the IPL franchisee war.

good answer ...from a congressman.

"he is not smart enough to be a corrept politician" - great finding though putting question mark on abilities of Mr. Tharoor to be a real congressman

"favourite of both BJP and D-company" ..as if nobody knows the relationship of NCP/Congress/Samajwadi leaders of Maharshtra and D-company

Have a close watch. Why people think those who seem to support Tharoor are congressmen and those who seem to link BJP and D-company are congressmen. I just aired my opinion that deals of Mr. Modi are much more murkier than that of Mr. Tharoor.

Even if, influence favoured Ms. Pushkar to get the IPL share of Kochi team, there in nothing illegal from the part of Mr. Tharoor in the whole issue and those allegations will not stand in any court.

And who are all in good company with D-company is no great secret. But, these are the occassions, when we citizens can identify the partners through the veils.

No party is averse to Business, Cricket & Cinema in India (BCCI). D-company too!!!?

Sharad Pawar's Dirty Games
by Rahul on Apr 14, 2010 10:55 PM

Told to take money and withdraw, the successful but frightened Kochi franchise winners seek Sonia’s protection.

Harassed and bullied, the Kochi franchisees of cricket’s Indian Premier League have sought the protection of Congress president Sonia Gandhi from two Union cabinet ministers, who allegedly wanted them out of IPL.

At least two of the seven investors of Rendezvous Sports World (RSW), that won the franchise for Kochi, were last week summoned to the Mumbai residence of a Union cabinet minister and told to back off from bidding for Kochi or else. “We have many ways to take care of the likes of you,” the two now-scared investors were told at the end of a conversation with the minister that began at 10 pm and went on till 4 am. They were told to go to Delhi to meet another minister from the same party, who apologised for his colleague’s conduct but repeated: “Get out of IPL. Sell the team.”

Its Modi who brought this Scam into light at his own risk by breaching the code of conduct..

So its Taroor in trap now, still Kochi owners not answering how Sunanda Pushkar came into Kochi owner list..


1) 75Cr free will given to Sunanda Pushkar why?
2) Why Taroor need to call modi to sign the Kochi team documents?
3) Why Sunanda Pushkar lieing that she was approached by KKR, which KKR is denying it
4) what background Sunanda Pushkar has to deal such a huge amount ?

Tharoor is an elected representative from thiruvananthapuram constituensy and he is supposed to work in the best interst of tvm and kerala which he has done. It is a part of his duty. By doing so he was trying to make ipl accessible to the players and people of Kerala. Priyadarshan and Mohan lal tried for the team but they couldnt win because of some vested interests. Sincehe is a powerful person he was able to win the team for his state. thats all .. his role ends there. Because of all these controversies I am afraid we are going to lose an able and professional minister who can bring change to our country. If it happens it will be loss not only to kerala but also to the country. I believe congress is not going to take any foolish decisions

That is pure bull.

First, it is not right to say that the Kochi team was in the interest of Kerala. Not at all. It is just in the interest of the greedy businessmen.

Secondly, assuming that you are right, there is no justification for Tharoor's Girl Friend to be given free stake. It is to be investigated if this free stake is a form of Gratis given to benami.

Lastly, Tharoor has been making a complete fool of himself ever since he became a minister. He is being heard and read about for all reasons other than his ministerial work. Such people are misfit to be in the Govt. If the Congress is indeed serious, Tharoor should be sacked without any further delay.

Modi may not be a saint, but that does not mean that the murky happenings re Kochi Team is just to be ignored.

Who are the Franchisees fooling? They are not here for the game. They are here for the money. The spat between Tharoor and IPL is not the issue.

It is amazing that hundreds of crores of rupees are being spent on cricket when the common man is reeling under the effect of price rise. It is high time that IPL is completely banned and the money thus saved be utilized for the benefit of the common man.
