'Already under debt': Maharashtra opposition leader questions Rs 11 crore cash reward to Indian cricket team

The Indian cricket team is back home and enjoying star treatment after the victory in the ICC T20 World Cup. In a facilitation event held at the Maharashtra assembly, chief minister Eknath Shinde announced a reward of Rs 11 crore for Team India. Now the opposition has questioned the cash reward asking 'what was the need'. "They gave such a huge sum to the Indian Cricket Team, what was the need? Team India played for the country and not themselves, this is why the streets were flooded to welcome them," Wadettiwar told news agency ANI.
