MP Sachin Tendulkar not allowed to make debut speech, Congress to blame
Rajya Sabha MP and cricketer Sachin Tendulkar hoped to make his debut speech today, but failed miserably. Congress MPs initially made a ruckus over comments made by PM Modi about Pakistan and former PM Manmohan Singh and later about the fact that Sachin has poor attendance in the House.
Sachin kept, who hoped to deliver a speech on 'right to play and the future of sports in India' kept waiting in the hope that the Congress MPs would settle down and let him speech, but that was in vain.
A frustrated chairman of the house -- Venkaiah Naidu -- tried several times to quieten the opposition MPs, telling them their protests were not going on the record and asking them to show respect to the Bharat Ratna awardee, who is the only cricketer (current or former) to score 100 international centuries.
