Good, Ms. Harmanpreet has been bestowed with a deserving award. But such awards should be given to the achievers in all the games and sports, regardless of the popularity.
I am forced to react to Sri Pandya's remark .You should have seen her batting in WWC semifinal against Australia. Honouring a person who has contributed to India becoming a force in Women's cricket is the minimum once can do. I am also not a fan of Congress but politics has no place here.

Dear JATIN there is no political stunt here though I hate Congress. You should know that any person "who represents India, in any Sport, will have special Category selection" (may be not in IAS, IPS & Army) & she got selected in State Police service. Congrats to her & look forward to her Centuries in Police (put an end to 100s of criminals)

You will have to wait & see when she goes thru her training & takes up posting, as full DSP in some Office. Did you know that VVS Laxman was employed with Air India & do you think he was flying or whatever duties? He was selected as sportsman in quota. Indian Volley Ball Captain Gopal was working with AP Police as Inspector. So what? Cant they work, after their actual sports career in any Office?

Cricket is like mail/express trains and the rest are like passenger trains.
