Narain's Helmet with the Indian Flag

Narain's Conterversial Helmet

Posted by Hello

This is the helmet that the Indian government is out to get.

Firstly, that aint even Indian colors. It looks kinda sorta like the Indian flag, but it aint. The chakra (the wheel on the top) is a dead give away though.

India is one of the very few developing countries that has a chance of representing itself in a global sport. I think it is the personal opinion of the preson to represent himself as an Indian or an individual. I understand that the Indian goverment has strict rules about where and when a flag can be displayed and how.. for all the right reasons. But this is a case where the person has decided to represent himself as an Indian and is showing the world that we are there making a mark.

I really think this is not a big deal, as long as Narain does not have the flag on his shoes or something.

It is such a pathetic thing that the dirty politics in the country even thought of someone who represents the country in the world's most exclusive and prestegious sport
