Dhirendra Shastri spoke on Bangladeshi player in KKR team, what did he say to Shahrukh Khan? – ..

News India Live, Digital Desk: The name of Baba Bageshwar (Pandit Dhirendra Krishna Shastri) and his statements always remain in the headlines. Sometimes he is in the news for his court, and sometimes for openly expressing his opinion on the burning issues of the country. Recently another case has come to light, where Baba has said such things regarding Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) owner Shahrukh Khan and the presence of Bangladeshi players in the team, which has sparked debate on social media.

In fact, Dhirendra Shastri, the head of Bageshwar Dham, is often vocal on the issue of Sanatan and nationalism. When he was questioned about the participation of Bangladeshi players in IPL and especially in Shahrukh Khan’s team, his style was as direct and clear as ever.

What was the matter?
According to reports, Dhirendra Shastri was asked that on one hand there are reports of tension on the borders, while on the other hand players from neighboring countries are given place on the cricket field. Giving his opinion on this, Baba said that sports has its place, but the honor of the nation and the sentiments of the people should not be compromised. However, instead of directly putting anyone in the dock, he gave the message that the country’s money and opportunities should be for the country first.

Questions arising regarding Shahrukh Khan and KKR
Shahrukh Khan’s team KKR is often known for its global touch, and Bangladeshi players keep coming and going in this team. A section on social media keeps expressing their displeasure about how right it is to give them sports opportunities in India amidst the treatment of minorities in Bangladesh. In this context, when Dhirendra Shastri was asked, he clearly said that there is no dearth of talent in India, the youth here should get more opportunities.

War broke out on social media
As soon as this statement of Baba went viral, people got divided into two groups. Some people say that sports should not be linked with politics and religion, while a large section seems to agree with Dhirendra Shastri that “India’s honor should come first”.

Baba also indicated in his talks that a person should do his work with complete honesty, but if it is a matter of cultural consciousness and security, then it is not right to compromise there. His statement has once again heated up the discussion as to whether it is possible to look at the entertainment world and cricket separately from the perspective of national interest?

At present, there has been no official statement from either KKR or Shahrukh Khan on this entire matter, but Dhirendra Shastri’s words have made it clear that he is not going to be limited to only spiritual matters.
