Vilasrao Deshmukh, Chief of MCA, believes http://www.senore.com/Cricket/SR-Tendulkar-c2556 truly deserves Bharat Ratna – Cricket News Update
Vilasrao Deshmukh, the newly elected Chief of Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA), has registered his support for the long-held and hard-pressed stance of the Indian cricket lovers to award Bharat Ratna, the most prestigious civil honour of India, to Sachin
Tendulkar, the Indian batting legend.
The MCA president opines that Tendulkar deserves the honour as he has been serving Indian cricket for over more than two decades and has achieved numerous milestones and feats in his career.
Talking to the media, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Mumbai-c820 Cricket Association, I would talk to the Sports Minister, Home Minister and Prime Minister and request them to change the norms for the award to include sportspersons
too in its category of recipients.”
The public demand for conferring the Civil Award upon Tendulkar has been persisting since long but it was intensified after Team India’s http://www.senore.com/Cricket/ICC-World-Cup-2011-c100625 Cricket World Cup 2011 victory, which many believe, is owed to the Master Blaster.
However, the Indian government is still unresponsive as no sportsperson has ever been awarded Bharat Ratna and it will be quite an unconventional step, which may draw criticism from some circles.
A few weeks back, the Indian Sports Minister, Ajay Maken, wrote to the Home Ministry to deliberate on the matter of including sportsmen in the list of Bharat Ratna nominees.
Deshmukh argues that Tendulkar is an undisputed hero and no one in http://www.senore.com/Cricket/India-c750 is likely to raise any objection if the legend is awarded the Ratna.
Tendulkar is at the twilight of his International cricket career as he has turned 38. However, the rock-star is not ready to hang his boots yet and wants to enjoy the game for some more years to come.
The top scorer of the world in both Test and ODI formats of cricket is currently representing the Men in Blue in the 1st npower Test against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/England-c56013 at Lord’s, where he is being expected to complete his 100th International ton.
