Gopichand “Mentally harassing”!!!

India’s ace shuttler Jwala Gutta Monday welcomed Bombay High Court’s observation that it is ethically wrong for chief national badminton coach Pullela Gopichand to run a private academy in Hyderabad.

The women’s doubles player also questioned Gopichand Academy for collecting huge money from the budding players despite the fact that it came up on a government land and is funded by the Sports Authority of India (SAI)

She told reporters here that the academy was running fully on commercial lines though it was the government which allotted land for it and was also giving the funds.

The 28-year-old alleged that only those who get coaching at the academy were being selected for the tournaments. “I know a player who was among the top five but was not sent to nationals because he is from LB Stadium,” said

Jwala supported Prajakta Sawant, who dragged Gopichand to court, alleging that Gopichand was “mentally harassing” her by not allowing her to participate in the All India National Coaching Camp in Hyderabad. The Mumbai shuttler alleged that Gopichand was out to ruin her career by promoting only those players who train at his academy.

Though a relative of Gopichand, Jwala never had good terms with him. She trains at LB Stadium here under former national chief coach Syed Mohammed Arif.

“Arif sir also had an opportunity to start an academy but he was never interested in turning badminton into commercial activity.”

However, as her mentor Amar Singh has diferred with the party chief Mulayam Singh and was later expelled from the party, Jaya Prada also fell out. She was also expelled from the SP. Though Amar Singh has launched a new party, it has flopped during the recent elections. Now she has no future in UP. With this there has been debate on her future plans. She has indicated that she was thinking of a come back to state politics on an earlier occasion also.

However, she has recently stated that Chandra Babu Naidu was a great administrator, giving rise to speculations that she might return to TDP. However, sources say that there are strong indications that she might join the YSR Congress, as most of the TDP leaders were already joining the new party.

The TDP chief Chandra Babu Naidu has written an open letter to the fans of the founder of his party late N T Rama Rao, countering the allegations made by his daughter and union minister Purandareswari against him.

Alleging that Purandareswari was trying to politicize the issue of erection of NTR’s statue in Parliament, he has questioned the union minister why she had not questioned about the statue when Dr. Y S Rajasekhara Reddy was alive. He said she should also explain why she had kept quiet then and opened her mouth now. Naidu has alleged that there was no mention of NTR’s name in any of the books brought out on the occasion of the World Telugu conference, Naidu has alleged that though such great insult was heaped on her father, Purandareswari was not talking about it. He has also questioned why Purandareswari had not brought pressure on the central government to name the Shamshabad airport after N T Rama Rao.

He said the letter written by Purandareswari was just a pack of lies.

It may be recalled that Purandareswari has written an open letter to the fans of NTR making a serious charge against Naidu that he was responsible for blocking erection of the statue in Parliament. She said in the letter that it was due to her efforts that the Speaker Meira Kumar has given clearance to setting up the statue in Parliament. She said she had even given a model and got it approved by the committee without divulging the information as she feared that Naidu would once again throw spanner in her works.

Congress ruled UPA Government had safely crossed the voting barrier on Foreign Direct Investments (FDI) Bill in retail sector introduced in the Parliament few days ago, but the Opposition party in the State TDP, which was already facing troubles, was in neck deep crisis after the voting on FDIs.

Following this, the three members have given their explanation to the party Chief giving various reasons for their absence. Senior leader Devender Goud said that he took the permission from the party Chief and went for medical check up. Devender Goud also indulged in counter attack on Party leaders. Gundu Sudha Rani said that she came to Hyderabad on the day of voting on FDI to console her relative who was under going treatment. She also said that she missed the return flight from  Hyderabad.

The third member Sujana Chowdari, who was basically an industrialist, met Chandrababu Naidu at Adilabad and has given his explanation on Saturday. Speaking to the media later, he said that it was a mistake on his part to abstain from  voting. He also said that he has no business links with the Congress party leaders.

But the party leaders were not sparing their criticism on three Rajya Sabha members alleging that the TDP was losing credibility just because of such leaders.

Responding to the unexpected criticism within the party, Sujana Chowdari tendered his resignation on Sunday. He sent his resignation to the party Chief. He said later that he was feeling uneasy with the consequences taking place in the party. He also said that he was already given explanation to the party Chief but some leaders in the party were making it as an issue intentionally.
