Before you reject this idea as outlandish and stupid, let me quote Aristotle by saying
“It is a mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it”
Going by this note, do you think there is a distinct possibility that IPL is conceptualized with the help of CIA as part of a plot to divide India? I mean, think about it..there are whistleblowers in the US government who allegedly claimed that CIA had secret designs to split Indiahttp://www.mid-day.com/news/2009/jan/220…
We’ve also seen how viral IPL has gone, across the populace. People go so crazy as to boo players and teams not belonging to their home towns. I see facebook posts filled with messages like “Down with Konga *******” and so on. Could this be a step taken towards inciting regional animosity and hatred? Don’t you think, it’s possible for vested interests to exploit outrage over regional issues such as mass immigrations, naxalism, caste issues and even the Cauvery water issue?
What do you think?
PS: Why would CIA be interested in splitting India? So that it’s easier to control and influence markets. One country can always find means to benefit from another country’s demise. If India got divided, American markets can easily tap into individual parts and portions of India, instead of having to negotiate trade agreements with people who represent the entire country.
