BCCI Restructuring - A Bad Pill?

BCCI Restructuring - A Bad Pill?

This year started with a big blow to the BCCI when the Supreme Court removed Anurag Thakur from the post of the President of the cricket body as well as Ajay Shirke from the post of the Secretary for not complying with the court’s order.

If you give them a lined paper, they sure will write the other way. Here welcome the always motivated and analytical neurons to hit with a bang of an MBA brain which for the time being hasn’t gone haywire.

Jallikattu Ban – Unfair Or Justified?

Jallikattu Ban – Unfair Or Justified?

Jallikattu is a traditional bull-taming sport organised in Tamil Nadu during Pongal, a practice that dates back to as far as 2000 years. It is a sport that involves a natively reared bull that is set free inside an arena filled with young participants. The challenge lies in taming the bull with bare hands. Ideally, participants try to grab the bull by its horns or tail and wrestle it into submission.
