IPL: Indian Premier League or International Premiere League

India's proud offering to world cricket-Indian Premier League can now be dubbed as 'International Premiere League' or NRIPL. The Indian government has exposed its weakness by announcing its decision to host the IPL outside India. As Narendra Modi puts it, the international community will attach itself to the perception that India like Pakistan, is a terrorist state. If the government starts incapacitated enough to give protection to 11 people, how will it be able to protect the lives of 100 crore people? Citing the elections clashing with IPL as the reason for the govt to do so, has only exposed India's inadequacy to the outside world. What remains to be seen is will India behave in the same manner when it comes to hosting the forthcoming World Cup Cricket matches and Commonwealth Games?
