The International hockey match that's going on in my city has deprived the city's common population from watching their favourite International matches which they waited for so long. Tickets that cost rupees 200 or 300 are being sold as high as Rs.5000 and Rs.10000 too. The people of our city are really heart broken not being able to watch their favourite players play. It's really suprising that the district administration, Odisha Government and the government of India are just sitting tight without taking any action. What does our state and country heads want I really don't understand. A bad name for Odisha and India?

This does not sound like a good situation. Government often makes bad ideas all over the world.

That's true. They react only after the situation worsen and the country's economy is affected.

@CarolDM Yes, the politicians in India love scandals and they want a dishonest country.

It seems profit and greed are always present in some form. Too bad they are taking advantage of the situation.

I didn't know they had international hockey matches outside of the Olympics.

Yes, they have. The Indian Women's hockey team has won against South Africa.

Some of these things are scams too.

Scams for sure but when the media is highlighting it. The district administration and the government should take proper steps.
