Cricket has become an emotion in India and the Indian Premier League is just like a festival. This year has been the worst one and it seemed like IPL will not happen this year. However, the Indian Premier League has begun and it is happening in UAE this year. Television actor Shashank Vyas who is known for his role as Jagdish in Balika Vadhu has always given his opinions in every matter. Be it Sushant Singh Rajput's death mystery, or the plight of migrant labourers, Shashank has never been scared to express his opinions. The actor has now expressed his disappointment over conducting IPL this year in such worst situation where our country has even bigger issues. In an interview with Spotboye, he spoke about the same.
He said, "I just have one question, was it so important to have the IPL this year? We have all been through a really tough time in the past couple of months, so many lives were lost, GDP has shrunk, the economy has been hit so badly, the unemployment rate is at an all-time high, COVID-19 cases are increasing by the day, we are on the verge of fighting a war with China, the list is endless. And these are some bigger issues that I have mentioned. There are other issues that have been completely ignored, and nobody even talks about it, like the small businesses that were shut down, students facing problems with online classes, etc. But we are focussed on a game, is it our priority?"
"Instead of agreeing on having the tournament this year and that too in another country, the government should have tried to solve at least some problems, if not all. They could have started with compensation to farmers and migrants, then focussed on the border issues, they could have helped students. But all they thought of was IPL. Most of us contributed to the PM Care Fund for COVID-18 relief, but not to organise this mega event by spending crores. Instead of focussing on sensational things, we should focus on the sensitive ones, " Shashank Vyas added.
