Great decision by Modi Govt to rename Rajiv Gandhi Khel Ratna Award to Major Dhyan Chand Khel Ratna Award.

Now I hope they can rename Narendra Modi Stadium and Jaitley Stadium also. Remove all politician names.

Hopefully in the future sports stadium names will be after sportsmen too.

Rajiv Gandhi Khel Ratna award has been renamed to Major Dhyanchand Khel Ratna award.

Even as a critic of Modi, completely support this decision, stadiums and awards should never be in the name of Politicians.

Change the names of Jaitley stadium & Narendra Modi Stadium next

Next step should be to change name of Narender Modi stadium, these politicians don't deserve stadiums to be named after them #MajorDhyanChand !! pic.twitter.com/O7nMV925qR

This decision should be appreciated but I request PM @narendramodi to change the name of Narendra Modi Stadium and Arun Jaitly Stadium to the name of cricketer like Sachin Tendulkar, Sunil Gavaskar or Kapil Dev. #MajorDhyanChand pic.twitter.com/EzunJp4vMM

राजीव गांधी को 84 दिल्ली सिख नसलकुशी के लिए हमलोग नफरत करते हैं…
लेकिन फिर भी राजीव गांधी खेल रत्न का नाम अगर बदल दिया जा रहा है तो नरेंद्र मोदी स्टेडियम भी नही होना चाहिए.
खेल के स्थानों इनामों के नाम खिलाड़ियों के नाम ही होने चाहिए…!#KhelRatan #modistadium
