A Khel Ratna by any other name.


I welcome the change of name of Khel Ratna awards from Rajiv Gandhi to Maj Dhyan Chand.

However, for those who think the BJP or Modi did that for love of sport, of hockey, or of the late Maj Dhyan Chand and/or the disgust with sporting avenues, awards, and arenas being named after non-sportspersons and/or non-sportspeople occupying positions of responsibility and power in sporting bodies, I have a slightly used white marble mausoleum on the banks of the Yamuna to sell you for cheap.

Like everything the BJP does, even the parts that end up being for the good, the ulterior motive always involves 'teaching a lesson to' Islam and Muslims (which includes Pakistan and Bangladesh), the Nehru-Gandhi family, and/or the Congress Party. They are perhaps the pettiest, bloodyminded, humourless, dogs in the manger I have ever had the misfortune to witness.
