It is very unfortunate that Delhi Police have arrested some
cricket players for their alleged role in the spot fixing in the ongoing
IPL tournament. The Minister of Youth Affairs and Sports, Shri Jitendra
Singh has spoken to the Chairman of the IPL Shri Rajeev Shukla on the
issue and impressed upon him to take urgent steps to put in place a
mechanism to prevent such unethical activities and ensure clean sports
in the country. The Minister also emphasized that strict action be
taken against all those who are found guilty to serve as a deterrent to
others.
