Sachin Tendulkar should now come forward in public sphere: Manish Tewari

The Little Master, as Sachin Tendulkar is fondly referred to, went into retirement after 24 years with a final innings of 74 against the West Indies.

Tendulkar has already retired from limited overs cricket and Indian cricket fans have been struggling to cope with his farewell.

Minister for Information and Broadcasting Manish Tewari said in New Delhi that this match was quite special for India because Tendulkar is not just a great batsman but also a very good human being.
