If you know cricket a popular sport in indian sub continent

Sachin Tendulkar the greatest batsman india or the world has ever produced(some might question this, i personally rate Viv Richards better). Everyone in india vouch for his commitment to his country. his dedication , his patriotism. until one fine day our little master Sachin spreads his ugly wings. he asks for a custom duty waiver on a Ferrari gift recieved from Fiat. the customs duty comes up to 1.25 Crores(12.5 Million Indian Rupees) and the govt waves it saying its in public intrest. now the question is why should sachin actually ask for waiver when he can easily pay it(the guy earns millions in endorsments) and why should the govt waive it .

To quote from one of the comments in the article am listing.
Quote: "Centre was "satisfied" that the exemption was necessary in "public interest." Unquote. The Centre has never known & will never know where public interest lies. Instead of waiving duty for a person who can very well afford to pay it, they should utilise the tax that Tendulkar pays them for his free car to improve infrastructure. They could start with the so-called roads which we have, which will indirectly benefit Tendulkar, so that his precious Ferrari does not get damaged driving on them! . Read on..................
