"I appeal to the players who have made the country proud, do not throw your medals in the Ganges. You have not got these medals by the grace of BJP MP Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh, but you have got them through years of penance and meditation. Undoubtedly, there has been very barbaric behaviour towards the players in the past. Due to this the whole country is sad. This is the same land where an attempt was made to strip a woman, resulting in the Mahabharata. I want to warn the government that while following Rajdharma, listening to the voices of the players, giving up arrogance in time and giving them justice," Hood said.
