There has been lot of attacks and act of proxy war from Pakistan against India including 26/11. However for a moment though it appears as India is a bit serious on the matter of 26/11. There was lot of usual outrage on the streets of Mumbai and across India after 26/11. No Cricket Players were allowed to play in IPL directly or indirectly after 26/11. No direct relationship or talks were happening after 26/11 at Political Level. There was no “CRICKETING ACTION” between these two great nations after 26/11.
However, when it was decided by the outcome of couple of Quarter Finals, that India will play Pakistan in Semi-Final; there was a bit of shameful politics which got played to forget the carnage of 26/11. Cricket and Passion of Cricket indeed binds two variables called India and Pakistan but wasn’t it the ACT of SHAMENESS to call Prime Minister of Pakistan to witness the game and forget what happened in last 3 years as after effects of 26/11.
What is the message that MMS & Media is sending to Pakistan Officials? Aren’t we back to infamous “SAB CHALTA HAI” attitude?
Game between India and Pakistan should have been played with an environment away from Political Affairs. Yes, we should have welcome Pakistani Cricket team with same enthusiasm. Yes, we should have welcome Pakistani Cricket Fans with the same zeal, but sending a formal invitation to Pakistani Prime Minister was a bit like calling them for the funeral of pride.
For a day or two, Media was showing all programs and welcoming Pakistani brothers like there was nothing called 26/11 happened. It was all in the interest of TRP, a bit shameful hypocrisy I must say. Life in India is so cheap and government and especially congress government has never cared about People of India but it’s a disgrace that Media also forget 26/11 under the carpet of TRP is bit gloomy.
