On 20th Jan 1948, Madanlal had exploded a bomb at Birla House, where Gandhi lived. After Madanlal was arrested, Gandhi said the following in the evening prayer meeting.
No one should look down upon the misguided young man who had thrown the bomb. He probably looked upon me as an enemy of Hinduism. After all, had not the Gita said that, whenever there was an evil-minded person damaging religion, God sent someone to end his life?
I was searching for a house, and found one house, which suited many of my requirements, but not all. The rent for that house was Rs.6,000 and a deposit of Rs.35,000. I was not sure, whether I can get better house than that. So, I decided to take it, and paid an advance of Rs.1,000. After few hours, I realized that, it may be little difficult to adjust in that house, and I continued my searching for five days, and found another house. Immediately after finding the house that satisfied all my requirements, I told the previous house owner that, I would not take that house, and I lost the advance.
Who got benefited out of this?
The room rent is Rs.6,000 per month. For 5 days, it would be around Rs.1,000. Since, I reserved that room for 5 days, I paid Rs.1,000 for that. So, I was not in loss. The same thing with the house owner. But, the house owner might have more loss, if he was using paid advertisements, and he might have lost few potential tenants.
Many people do not understand this and think that I lost money in this, where as I did not lose anything.
IPL did not put the players who never played for India in auction. Players like Ambati Rayudu, Manish pandey have never played for team India, so they were not put in the auction. By the rules of IPL, they can get at max of Rs.30 Lakh and Rs.20 Lakh respectively. Those players can directly talk to the franchises and make agreements.
In the last few days, I have read so many news items and cartoons sympathizing them for getting so less money in IPL, where as players who played very few matches for team India are getting in crores.
If an important player comes just for Rs.30 Lakh, who would not want him? Every team would fight for him. If more than one team fights for him, what would he do? He would increase his price. Since, IPL does not allow him to take more than Rs.30 Lakh, he would take the extra amount as black. Finally, whoever can give him more money, he would play for that team.
The difference is, in the auctioning, the teams can spend at max Rs.45 crore for buying the entire team, where as in this case, there is no cap for the players. (That's why these players are called as Uncapped players. ;) )
There is no need to sympathize the uncapped players. All of them get good amount of money for their capability.
