Honoring a cricket player with the country's top civilian award is too much that patriotic Indian can bear. The country has seen top notch sportsmen like Dhyan Chand, Milka Singh and even contemporarily Dhanraj Pillai and their contributions are far more greater than that of cricket and cricket players. It is okay sportsmen are honored with Arjun Award and Rajiv Khel Ratna Award. Country's civilian honors should be reserved and bestowed only to outstanding men and women who contribute to the society at large.Prof. Murugesanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10933321014458984434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4026752849891280534.post-8132126480800348222013-11-17T19:53:13.800+05:302013-11-17T19:53:13.800+05:30Mr Sampath I am Insurance surveyor in namakkal ,i ...Mr Sampath I am Insurance surveyor in namakkal ,i attend some seminars teach by u in trichy, i know your <br />cricket knoweledge, leave it the man continously playing cricket for past 24 years,nobody playing like that so we have to hanour this way this is not mistake.
