Statues all around: Why does no one stand with Bishan Singh Bedi?
Why did no Indian cricketer stand with Bedi against DDCA? The answer, perhaps, lies in how the BCCI deals with people who ask uncomfortable questions. Updated Jan 14, 2021 · 07:56 pm PTI
Bishan Singh Bedi stands alone, just like the newly-installed statue of Arun Jaitley at the Feroze Shah Kotla ground. The difference, though, is in the people who stand around them.
When the statue was unveiled at the Kotla, Union Home Minister Amit Shah was present along with members of Arun Jaitley’s family, Union Ministers Hardeep Singh Puri and Anurag Thakur, BCCI president Sourav Ganguly and secretary Jay Shah, and former India and Delhi captains Virender Sehwag and Gautam Gambhir. And that is just to name a few. There were plenty of hanger-ons too.

Ajinkya Rahane has become the first recipient of the Mullagh Medal. From 2020, every Player of the Match from a Boxing Day Test started receiving the Mullagh Medal, established in honour of Johnny Mullagh, a star from the 1868 Aboriginal tour of England. The Aboriginals of 1868 were Australia’s first sporting team to compete overseas. They have only recently been given their due in Australia’s cricketing consciousness.
India, however, is a very long way from celebrating its champions or paying formal tribute to their legacies.
According to multiple news reports, the 48-year-old reportedly complained of uneasiness while working out and was subsequently hospitalised in Kolkata.

NEW DELHI, Dec 28: A controversial build-up notwithstanding, the Delhi and District Cricket Association (DDCA) on Monday unveiled the statue of its former president Arun Jaitley at its premises in the memory of the late administrator and former union minister.
Union Home Minister Amit Shah unveiled Jaitley’s life-size statue, prepared by 96-year-old renowned sculptor Ram Sutar, the man behind the making of the iconic Statue of Unity in Gujarat.
