Rajya Sabha Member of Parliament (MP), Naresh Agarwal voices his opinion after Chennai Super Kings‘ (CSK) Gurunath Meiyapan was found guilty of spot-fixing in the Indian Premier League (IPL).

Agarwal says that he has found a solution to eliminate the menace of match-fixing in cricket by bringing the sport under the Indian government’s control.

Agarwal feels that cricket has been corrupted by too much money and glamour in India and if the sport was indeed to be placed under government supervision then the ‘hard working’ Indian government would surely be in a better position to rightfully restore the original glory to the sport in the country.
