[guttayelan]

badminton has become a political game to gain..

do u think they really want to coach and produce players for india?

they are so sad chetan , jawal and shruti are ranked 28th respectively in the world...

gopi is the first person to do it..

if more players perform better than his records...his name willbe no where..so he digs harder to these players by blackmailing all association's currupted ( or innocent?)members...to support his deals..

pls read more on this column , u will come to know the indian brand badminton..while watch...they can influence international badminton association ,too...

but we will fight for these players right...

i am sure world will support us..
