The just retired Sachin Tendulkar should be made sports minister to improve India’s sporting prowess according to former India athlete, Milkha Singh. Singh believes that SRT being a sportsman, can help create an awareness and make better facilities for various sports in India.
“Sachin should be made sports minister so that he can work for the betterment of sport. It’s only a sportsman who will work sincerely and with dedication for the cause of sports,” he said in a presser. Milkha Singh was speaking to reporters on the sidelines of the unveiling of the mascot for the Lusofonia Games in Panaji.
Sachin who already holds a seat in the Parliament, really can have a crack at the Sports Ministry since our country is ailing to have a ‘Sports’ Minister. The only doubt remains, will Sachin be able to start a ‘2nd innings’ in politics?
