Re: [rti4empowerment] Wherefrom President of india, CM of Delhi, Maharashtra, Jharkhand, Railway Minister, CM of Karnataka etc

Sir, Allotment of plots & granting other monetary awards is the rubbish decision of Governments. The players have not done anything for the country. Whatever they have achieved is for their personal gains only. And they have won the cup utilising the natural resources of the country only.   Remember Abhinav bindra got crores for show of his shooting skills. Compare with what a soldier get when he lays his life by practicing the same skills in strict real conditions. That is why almost on every half year we read in daily news papers that our defence forces lack this much post of able officers despite plenty of unemployment in the country.   Summarily speaking the monetary gains to players in comparision to actual heros is much - much disproportionate.   I personally disagree with govt. decision and urge all able persons to realise from this angle too.   Regards Trivendra --- On Thu, 7/4/11, DSouza Wilberious Evanglist <wilevades@yahoo.co.uk> wrote: From: DSouza Wilberious Evanglist <wilevades@yahoo.co.uk> Subject: [rti4empowerment] Wherefrom President of india, CM of Delhi, Maharashtra, Jharkhand, Railway Minister, CM of Karnataka etc To: "rti4empowerment@googlegroups.com" <rti4empowerment@googlegroups.com> Cc: "M.K. Gupta" <mkgupta100@yahoo.co.in> Date: Thursday, 7 April, 2011, 3:51 PM Dear All,   It is a matter of pride that Indian Cricket team won world cup. Has anyone given thought  Wherefrom President of India, CMs of Delhi, Karnataka, Mumbai Jharkhand, Union Railway Minister etc., derive the empowerment or authority to squander public funds to benefit private Individuals by granting Rs. 1 crore & plots/flats etc to cricketers when 76% of Indian population subsist by earning Rs 25 per day?  What is the benefit these cricket players have given to general public? Why stash their pockets when they are already billionaires?   Why not file a PIL just as some Pakistanis have filed for awarding Rs. 5 lac per cricketer there?   Regards, WEDS
