This is an interesting video clip....an interview of Lalit Modi taken just after the two new teams Kochi and Pune were announced after bid opening at Chennai!!
Watch him state clearly Shashi Tharoor is NOT involved financially but was just acting as a mentor, though he stammers trying to recall names of the Kochi Owners and gives the name of Venugopal (owns just 1%) but was the one who attended the bid opening!
Its obvious both Lalit Modi and Shashi Tharoor were made fall guys! Lalit does not seem to have anything against Shashi personally.
FINAL PRESENTATION SPEECH BY MODI: It takes a lot of courage even for someone like Lalit Modi to stand up and make the Final Presentation Speech as he did (knowing fully about his ouster!). And he said it! 'Indian Premier League is not IPL anymore but INDIAN PEOPLE LEAGUE!'
Here's a wild thought....
Lalit Modi should come 'clean' first, as he claims...
Next, he should embrace Shashi Tharoor and prove he meant nothing personally.
Then they launch Indian People League as new People's Party and show Indians you can 'clean-up' the system!
Thanks to Modi, everyone (from 8 to 80 years!) watching Indian TV channels over the last few days now knows what is 'sweat' equity, company forming, share structuring incl offshore cos. He did what other corporate bigwigs have done for eons. Now the new IPL party can guide and empower layman on how to build and run their lives profitably.
He built BCCI to become the richest sports body in the world within three years. Same skills can be replicated to reform and build INDIA to become the richest in the world. Its time for a true turnaround of India. Can the new IPL be the one to spearhead change? Think about it.
Over the next few days, BCCI and the Media will attempt to further throw brand Modi into the mud and it will be a huge challenge for him to prove himself. Brand IPL news will die down in few days. Can Modi swing it?
