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 about Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) owner Shahrukh Khan and the presence of Bangladeshi players in the team, which has sparked debate on social media. Actually, the head of Bageshwar Dham, Dhirendra Shastri 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 simple and clear as ever. What was the matter? According to the news, Dhirendra Shastri was asked that on one hand there are reports of tension on the borders, 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 come first for the country itself. Questions raised about 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 mixed with politics and religion, while a large section seems to agree with Dhirendra Shastri that “India’s honour” should come first. Baba also indicated in his talk that the work of a person should be done with complete honesty, but if it is a matter of cultural consciousness and security, then it is not right to compromise there. This statement of his has once again heated up the discussion on whether it is possible to keep the entertainment world and cricket separate from the perspective of national interest. At present, neither KKR nor Shahrukh Khan has made any official statement on this entire matter, but Dhirendra Shastri’s words have decided that he is not going to be limited to only spiritual matters.
