Great Indian Selection Panel
The so called "Few Good Men" have turned "Few Worst Men". Some might argue that they were never the "Good Men" in the first place. Our Selection panel headed by Krish Srikanth has taken a beautiful decision by dropping Saha, Mithun and Tyagi. In that two of the three were left in the bench. Why?
I suppose they didn't bring the drinks on time to the on field players. There cannot be any other reason behind that at the moment other than media pressure. This is not the first time this is happening. Every selection panel makes puzzling decisions but they got away because those players performed and our media forgets everything.
It'll be nice if things happen like football where the team's coach decides his team. In that way the coach, who is actually regarded as a dumb puppet can have a role to play.
Mukesh to buy Liverpool
This could be yet another rumour but if it happens then the prospect of Liverpool becoming a major force is quite possible. What about the future of Rafa Benitez?. I think Rafa'll move to Juventus and with a new investor, former Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho might come to Liverpool. Then Liverpool can win the premier league after what?? 18 years. My junior and friend Sampath, who is a die hard Liverpool fan would be really happy about the news. But really sorry dude. It is quite far-fetched.
The main reason is the initial investment needed to clean off the debts and for new signings needed. Keep in mind the fact that Mukesh owned RIL(Reliance Industries Limited) is a public sector company which needs the approval of investors for the funds. Mumbai Indians is a completely different story because cricket is no longer a sport but a pure commercial venture. The returns is gonna be huge from MI but not sure about Liverpool.
Another interesting Speculation: Mukesh buying Liverpool and then Anil buying Manchester United... The prospect is a classic. But lets wait and see whether my speculation becomes a reality.
One good Thing - "No to Monsanto BT" - Jairam
On behalf of SWAT I'd like to thank Mr.Jairam Ramesh, the environment minister of India for his decision to ban BT-Brinjals. But he has said that only Monsanto produced GM crops are gonna be banned and not all GM crops. The reason is because of Monsanto's public image. Another puzzling thing was the presence of Bill Clinton's Secretary in Delhi to help(????) the Indian Government in taking a decision.
This should not be another congress government decision similar to Telegana where Sir Alex Ferguson's Tactics would have seemed inferior. I really feel that this issue is far from over. The minister has said that "Illegal selling of GM crops should be tackled by the state government". Everyone should understand something here. If monsanto or mahyco or any other corporate introduces a transgenic variety, then that means that corporate is trying to create a monopoly in the market. In more clearer terms there will be no more natural crops rather only "Monsanto(or any other corporate) Crops".
It'll be nice if a permanent ban is imposed on GM foods. But at the moment happy that atleast a temporary ban is imposed. I'd like to congratulate all the NGO's who have worked for this cause like AID, Safe Food Alliance etc.
I'd like to thank all members who have worked in our "BT-Walk". A Special credit to the event coordinator vivek and all others who gave your support by signing the online petition.
