Pretty sure this bigot will end up renaming it after himself.

Just like motera stadium 

Good decision here. Dhyan Chand deserved this honour, who the * is Rajiv Gandhi when it comes to sports? Every major country names its top sports awards after sporting legends, glad India is catching up.

So you want the Khel Ratna to continue to be called Rajiv Gandhi Khel Ratna Award? Strange.

 

Why not ask for renaming of every sports facility in the name of sportspersons rather than politicians?

Didn't see this thread, so opened one in chit chat.

 

About time, wonder why it took Modi 7 years to arrive at this straightforward decision. 

 

Media attention. Free max publicity during Olympics 2020.

 

There wasn't much gain for him earlier.
