60 LAKH LITRES of water will be spent in one season of IPL. That is no less than 3,00,000 Litres for one match !!!

With over 15 farmers dying in Maharashtra every day, the more fortunate like you and I are allowing an insensitive indulgence for selfish reasons of pleasure and joy.

Every cricket game involves cleaning and washing of the pitch, that demands thousands of litres of water every day. With 1000 litres of water, we can save dozens of families in the down-trodden regions of our own state. Like Holi, but to a bigger extent, IPL is ruining India's situation and it gains success on the insensitivity of people like you and I.

Let us join hands, show compassion to our neighbours, and demand BCCI to move the venues of IPL from Maharashtra. Even better, ban IPL completely. But, that agenda is for another time. Let us eradicate this nonsensical tournament, a garish display of wealth, from our lives.
