IPL is sure going great guns and sponsors are banking on it. Amidst all this success, money making, run scoring, marketing and entertainment, IPL has gained some applaud from audience worldwide for altogether different reason.
Recent terrorist attacks at Jaipur, killed over 50 people. It was an event that left entire world shocked. Jaipur has been known for its culture and peaceful environment. Lively people, beautiful scenery, a tourist paradise, were the words that defined Jaipur to the world audience. No doubt these attacks have been condemned worldwide.
Returning to the main point we were discussing, IPL franchisee owners have contributed Rs 50 lakhs each and all the major sponsors Rs 40 lakhs each to help the blast victims. All this has added up to Rs 6 crores. Not only this, the TV crew as well contributed Rs 52000for the victims. This was a great gesture on part of the IPL owners and sponsors. They were able to connect with the ailing and crying hearts of the relatives of people, who died in the blast.
We also extend our heartily regards to the relatives of people, who died in the blast.
