IT raids and investigation ???????yyyyyy??just because some stupid media channels want to defame ipl without any proof??just because corrupt parties like rjd and cpi(m) dont like capitalistion. THIS issue will seriously hurt the economic intrest of india.this issue shows that Govt cant digest growth of any body.This will hurt the goodwill of respected business man like ambani and mallya.
Media only reports what it has been leaked to. They didn't make up the IT report. You think the media faked the IT raids? You think the media forced BCCI to meet and get rid of Modi? The issue here is Modi and not the IPL. Get rid of him, replace him with a more professional commissioner who is paid a very good salary and manages it like a professional unit and not his own personal toy.

if modi is so corrupt' date=' why he raised the issue of kochi ownership?[/quote'] Some more masala for you to digest :popcorn:
So what made Lalit Modi suddenly twitter innocuously last weekend about Sunanda Pushkar and how Tharoor had allegedly asked him not to inquire into who she was — the kindle that lit the fire stack? It’s common knowledge that Modi and Tharoor are friends, so why this sudden and ugly fall out? (Friends of Tharoor say that Modi is misusing a bantering remark the minister had made to him over a drink. Tharoor is, indeed, set to marry Pushkar but is waiting for a divorce from his Canadian wife Christa Giles to come through and, therefore, has been loath to make his relationship public. This is why when Modi asked him in a nudge-nudge sort of way, “So, who is Sunanda Pushkar?” Tharoor had laughingly evaded the question saying, ‘Don’t ask me that as yet.’ So what made Modi turn that into something sinister?) The answers lie muddied in the pit and snake back to earlier events. When Lalit Modi lost the elections to the Rajasthan Cricket Association (RCA), he not only lost a fiefdom, he lost much-needed immunity. With a Congress government replacing the BJP in the saddle, his political patronage was blown and more than 20 cases were opened against him, relating to tax evasion and financial irregularities when he was at the helm of the RCA. He desperately needed new armour, and a firm foot back in the Board for Control of Cricket in India (BCCI). The rumour mills say that Lalit Modi had approached Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi and was assured by the latter that if he could ensure that the Gujarat team wins the franchise and brings both glamour and money to the state, he’d be made the secretary of the Gujarat Cricket Association (of which the chief minister is the president). image At first, Modi tried hard to make friend Tharoor back off so that the Adani bid could be more competitive. He even tried to mislead the Kochi group by telling them that all they needed to win the race was $299 million. The consortium, however, was reportedly alerted by former Indian skippers Sunil Gavaskar and Ravi Shastri that Modi was actually seeking $322 million. The Kochi team was also told that they would face many technical hurdles to block them from winning the bid. But instead of backing off, the Tharoor- mentored Kochi consortium bid an astronomical Rs 1,500 crore and won the franchise. Powerful men — potential investors and politicians — across the country flew into a tizzy. Allegations began to fly fast and thick. The Kochi consortium alleges that Modi offered them a $50 million bribe to abandon their bid after they had won the Kochi franchise. They refused. The desperation in different quarters soared. The rumour goes too that, at one point, Modi made an urgent call to Tharoor saying things had gone beyond him and if Tharoor didn’t back off, Modi’s life would be in danger. But Modi was not the only angry man. Rumour also has it that Tharoor finds himself politically isolated for other reasons.

If modi found guilt of match fixing charges' date=' the whole country will suffer[/quote'] what about the phorun babas who actually under-performed :desiwoman: BTW I dont think he would dare fix matches as he knows that if he ever gets caught fixing matches, people will not wait for any court's ruling. Its one thing which can destroy whatever he has done, Im sure he has made a lot of money in IPL but fixing matches would be a stupid thing to do for someone like him PS: I saw his interview on BBC a year ago and he mentioned that he works for BCCI for the love of cricket , he has given up his day job for promoting cricket and he does it all for Rs1 a month. :hail:

there a facts which prove that no-one is innocent * 4.9 or .5% of share was given up, if it was an investment then why would someone give it up ? * Modi has his relatives involved from internet rights to team ownership, still he claims to make rs 1 a month and owns pvt plane ... So I dont think anyone is dudh ka dhula here ... its just that both these guys arent as experienced as Pawar or dalmiya ....

Modi is not innocent. He is a thug. He has brought shame to both India and Indian cricket. This is bigger than 2000 match fixing allegations. Now IT department has started questionning some of the players just because of him. Players always paid their taxes in time unlike IPL. Funny thing is some of the hardcore Modi fans who 3-4 days ago were giving credit to Modi for every good thing that has happened to India and Indian cricket. Now they are saying that Modi isn't alone others are also making money out of it. :hysterical: Comparing him to ministers and demanding action against ministers is also funny. Two wrongs don't make a right. God knows from where this money is coming.

You are wrong dude. Modi moved the IPL last year so that we die hard cricket fans can watch IPL. He is a true indian and those who don't like him are terrorism supporter. :(( You should feel proud of Modi. And yeah "Modi ko sab khoon maaf". :hehe:

Congress has unleashed it's rabid dog NDTV on Modi now. NDTV is only targetting Modi as if their sole aim to bring him down. All the news presenters are looking grim faced as if Sonia Gandhi is standing in front of them.. with a whip in her hands... :-)
