India is Deprived...

The IPL(Indian Premier League) T20 Season 2 is undoubtedly a monumental hit. It has snatched away the TRP (Television Rating Points) from all the other channels. SetMax simply rules the prime time slot in India. Half the tournament is over and cricket fans in South Africa have turned it into a carnival. The matches are so engaging that it makes you want to be there.(But Rs.49,990 only SA Holiday through Kingfisher Holidays is not very inviting) But in retrospect, it lacks the sting IPL Season 1 in India had. This season is devoid of the Akshay Kumar Stunt show before the games, the Hariharan Concert, drumming with empty bottles, and most importantly the reverberations of the INDIAN CROWD.
The dhoti clad, bespectacled, Harvard educated Home Minister of India, Mr.Chidambaram took the IPL 2 away. The reason, the inability to provide security at the match venues and for the players at the time of Elections. Yes, politcs definitely has greater precedence over cricket but the Congress govt could have cashed in on the opportunity to suck the votes. By conducting the IPL and the election simultaneously, and successfully the already diminishing faith on the party could have been restored. The attack on the Sri Lankan cricketers in Pakistan has terrified Mr.Chidambaram. By deciding to shift the venue of the IPL, he has portrayed India as a perilous land and also evidently shown that he has no faith in his security force.
Some of the his decisions during his Finance Minister days, like the stimulus packages etc were credible (btw the farmer loan waiver and all were crap). I have great respect towards Dr Manmohan Singh and the Abdullahs but if at all the Congress loose this election, it has to be due to the goof ups by their Home Ministers (be it Mr.Shivraj Patil or Mr.Chidambaram). As for the IPL, Sanath is GOD and GO CHENNAI SUPER KINGS!!!
