How nice it would have been if The BCCI and various Government bodies, Instead of just Announcing Obscene rewards for Cricketers, could have also Announced Various Socially Beneficial schemes, Scholarships and Grants!
BCCI has always been one of the richest sports associations with a net worth estimated at $1.5 billion; a sum expected to exponentially increase post India’s World Cup victory. Now, what would any sane government do in such situations? They would in all obviousness tax the gains from such a sport and redirect the collections to social service. Almost insanely, the Indian government recently announced a major relief to this association by allowing a Rs.450 million tax waiver to the ICC for the World Cup – of course, because a recent amendment in the Income Tax Act allows for such waivers.
Would it not have made better sense for BCCI and these various state governments to have announced an educational scheme for the girl child in celebration of our World Cup victory? Or perhaps the setting up of many new health centres? Sadly, at least this time, a Pakistani’s commitment to his nation seems fathoms more than our own to India.
