Narendra Modi seems to be the only sensible chief minister among all those who are 'rewarding' the boys in blue. Indeed, the boys deserve rewards, but for them, holding the world cup must be the highest reward itself. If anybody should reward them, it is the BCCI. I dont understand how state governments come into the picture. State govts have many other projects in which they could have utlised the money, which is now being given to these cricketers. Kudos to Modi for getting his priorities right in this hour of madness.

Also I would like to add that our team was representing INDIA and not the states, so even if the government wants to give something it should not be the state govts. but the central govt. These CM`s are supporting and creating provincial disputes in peoples minds who already keep on pointing like marathi, tamil, bihari, punjabi, kannada, bengali, gujrati etc. So can we all Generation Nexxt stand united against these abusive and nuisance creator govts and also the media who do spread these contagiuos rumours and religious discripancies in public, including rediff for such an article... JAI HIND!!!

I am amazed to see the public support for such activities. It is great that the Indian team won the world cup, but this behaviour of the CMs is in line with the Rajas & Maharajas of the old times.
CMs are not Rajas or Maharajahs. Whos money are they spending ?
They can gift their personal money as gift to anyone they like, but this kind of un-checked tax money spending is insane.
Indian players are NOT under-paid. The BCCI will and does compensate them well.
I am not a big fan of Modi and I am not sure what his motivations are but I do not believe that it is right for a CM to shell out TAX money when there are other genuine and more pressing needs within the state.
