………………………2. Sachin Tendulkar
Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar is India’s and probably world’s most admired and celebrated cricketer. He has an
enable fan following as large as that of rock stars or great movie stars. He truly is wonder boy of India.
Born on April 24, 1973, Sachin Tendulkar burst on the international cricket scene with his debut in a
series in Pakistan, when he was merely a boy of 16 years. Before being selected for the national scene he had
displayed his talent in domestic cricket at state and junior levels. In the very debut series, he made people take
note of him.
Then, followed his long cricketing career, in which he crossed one milestone after another and piled up
runs, half centuries and centuries to become the highest centurion and the most run getter. In his private life he
remained cool, calm and dignified. No vulgar show of success and flamboyance he indulged in. His serene
nature and temperament on the pitch amazed other stalwarts of past, contemporaries and sports analysts.
For the sports lovers, he became semi-god, for youth an icon and for sponsors a virtual money spinner.
The success never went to his head. He continued to be soft spoken, affable Sachin, a familiar face to all
Indians. He is a team man and the interests of the team and the country remained uppermost in his mind. For a
long time he was the scourge of the bowlers of the world.
In the later years of the cricketing life, Sachin several times was waylaid by injuries. But everEven 60 years after independence the woman of India are still exploited and abused inspite of constitutional
guarantees and new laws. The man considers himself superior to woman and her master. The orthodox system
of the family is set in his favour exclusively. Within the confines of domestic walls man feels free to act like a
merciless male chauvinist. The birth of female child is considered a curse in most parts of our country. Without
any thought the female foetus is murdered. At practical level law fails to protect a woman’s human rights. The
situation is worse in rural areas. There the woman slave for men considering it their fate and a duty ordered by
God Almighty. The rural women have no idea about their legal rights and privileges.
It is not the illiterate women’s fate only. Even educated woman of urban areas why is gainfully
employed does not use her rights for fear of antagonizing her husband. They meekly give in to the mate
arrogance to avoid domestic discord and physical abuse. The males of the family decid
e how to spend the
earning bf the working female. From the
childhood the girls are mentally conditioned to let the males do
the thinking for her and accept their decisions.
Thus, the male dominance continues to hold away at the cost of the rights and the privileges of women.
This factor has created gross imbalance in the Indian families. Now-a-days the families do not mind sisters,
daughters and wives seeking gainful employment as
