The 70th Kannada Rajyotsava was celebrated at the Bank of Baroda, Zonal Office, Mangaluru, on 3rd November 2025.
Dr. Vasanth Kumar Perla — a poet, writer, scholar, literary organizer, and former Director of All India Radio, Mangaluru — gave a detailed and insightful presentation on the history of Karnataka. He emphasized that the use of Kannada language is gradually declining compared to English and urged everyone to promote and preserve Kannada. Mr. Harekala Hajabba, recipient of the Padma Shri award, shared his inspirational life journey and the challenges he faced. He spoke about how he collected money from selling oranges and through donations to build a government school, donating 1.22 acres of land from his own holdings. Recognizing his remarkable contribution, the Government of India honored him with the Padma Shri award in 2020. He also expressed gratitude to several nationalized banks for their support in his endeavors. On this occasion, the General Manager & Deputy General Manager spoke about the importance of Karnataka and the Kannada language, and felicitated both Dr. Vasanth Kumar Perla and Mr. Harekala Hajabba.
As part of the Bank’s Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiative, Bank of Baroda donated computers to the Dakshina Kannada Zilla Panchayat High School, Harekala, through Mr. Hajabba as a token contribution.

Children are the Dream of Every Parent and the Hope of Every Nation; Here, We Ensure That Hope Is Nurtured | Fr. Faustine Lucas Lobo | Director, FMCI |
NV Paulose, Chairman, Global TV +91 98441 82044
Mangaluru, November 10: In just two months since its inauguration in August 2025, the Baandavya Child Development Centre (CDC) at Father Muller Charitable Institutions (FMCI) has already reached more than 300 children. The centre, which focuses on nurturing both the child and the family, has quickly become a trusted space for holistic growth and healing.
The Vision of Dr. Anil Shetty
The centre is the brainchild of Dr. Anil Shetty, Professor and Head of the Department of Pediatrics, who envisioned a single place where all aspects of a child’s development; medical, emotional and social, could be cared together. His dream was to bring different specialists under one roof to ensure that no child is left behind.
Baandavya now brings together experts from paediatrics, psychiatry, psychology, audiology, speech-language therapy, physiotherapy and special education. “Our mission is to treat with compassion and to nurture every child’s potential,” said Dr. Shetty. “We see Baandavya not as a clinic but as a movement towards holistic child development.”
A Message of Hope from Rev. Fr. Faustine Lucas Lobo
Speaking at today’s press conference, Rev. Fr. Faustine Lucas Lobo, Director of Father Muller Charitable Institutions, shared a heartfelt message of hope and inspiration. “Children are the dream of every parent and the hope of every nation; here, we ensure that hope is nurtured,” he said. Fr. Faustine praised Dr. Anil Shetty and the entire team at Baandavya for their commitment to compassionate and integrated care. “The dedication of this team is remarkable,” he said. “They are not only healing children but strengthening families and communities. Baandavya reflects the mission of Father Muller Institutions; to bring healing with humanity.”
Reaching Beyond the Hospital
Baandavya CDC is not limited to hospital-based care. Over the past year, its team has reached about 21,000 school children across 60 schools in the region through early screening and awareness programs. These visits help detect developmental or behavioural concerns early and guide families towards timely therapy and support.
Recognizing the vital role of teachers, Baandavya will hold a special workshop on December 10, 2025, for educators, counsellors and school nurses. The aim is to help schools identify and understand conditions like autism and ADHD early, replacing punishment with empathy and guidance.
A Mission Rooted in Care
For the Baandavya team, every child is special. “We never rank cases as more or less important. Every child deserves equal care and love,” said one of the staff members. Under the leadership of Rev. Fr. Faustine Lucas Lobo and the vision of Dr. Anil Shetty, the Baandavya Child Development Centre continues to build a future where children grow with dignity, families feel supported, and communities become more compassionate.
Help Others Find Ways and Means for Their Survival Income | Blissful Moments | True Self Realisation
NV Paulose, Chairman, Global TV +91 98441 82044
That was a brilliant moment when you stop treating extra income as a luxury and begin to see it as a force that builds dignity, confidence, and social progress. Imagine waking up each day knowing that your side incomes not only support your life but also help many others find their footing through survival income and then into regular income.
This idea is not a dream. It is a way of life that combines purpose with prosperity. The most beautiful part is that your growth can empower others to grow with you. This is the true spirit in creating sustainable models that strengthen people, communities, and institutions together.
The New Meaning of Income
Depending on a single pay check can be a risky choice in today’s uncertain times. Multiple streams of income are no longer a luxury but a necessity. They bring stability, flexibility, and creative freedom. But there is a greater purpose. Your side incomes should not exist only for personal benefit. They should create ripples of opportunity for others who are still searching for their survival income.
When your efforts help someone else stand on their own feet, your success becomes meaningful. You are not just earning. You are also empowering. You are creating a chain of positive change that extends far beyond your personal sphere. Your circle of excellence expands.
As time goes, you create an impact in the society and the people around get into the process of helping others. Everyone gets progress in team work. Engage people in addressing needs of the society than getting into innovations for the luxury of the rich people. Everything goes well when we create self-sustaining revenue models around people.
The Golden Rule of Balance
As you explore new sources of income, remember one essential truth. While you earn side incomes, make sure that the institution that provides your regular income also flourishes because of your efforts. Let your social initiatives, innovations, and outreach programs become part of the growth story of your institution as well.
Every project you start outside your main work should strengthen the institution’s ethos and expand its influence. When your personal ventures align with the institution’s mission, you become more than an employee. You become a partner in progress and a living reflection of its values. This kind of alignment not only uplifts the image of the institution but also deepens your own sense of purpose and belonging.
The SALT MAGIC | Least little things that we can do effortlessly
Get involved in the Salt Magic by giving an hour per week. Use your Time, Skill and Mind (TSM) to help a person in need to find a way for living. Club your personal growth and institutional progress in it.
Turn Knowledge into Value
Global TV encourages people to create repeatable outcomes based on local resources, knowledge and experience. These could be products, services, storybooks, short films, training, or learning materials that continue to generate both income and education.
Work in Small Teams
The Salt Magic (TSM) values the strength of small, supportive groups. When a few people work together on practical community projects, their learning is faster and their success is shared. Collaboration becomes the seed for sustainability. Even small things create impact.
Learn and Mentor Others
Every learner can become a mentor. This spirit of guidance turns experience into empowerment and ensures that no one walks alone in the journey of growth. Keep people connected. Grow with them.
Activate Dormant Assets
Every community holds unused skills, spaces, and time. By identifying and using these hidden resources, new possibilities for income arise. What once remained idle can now generate value.
A Practical Roadmap for Growth | Discover Local Opportunities
Begin by identifying the possible survival income activities in your surroundings. These could be crafts, small services, home-based production, teaching, or storytelling. Form small teams to work for your community. Select ideas that require little cost to start.
Start Small, Think Big
Select one local project and one digital idea to begin. It could be a community book, a snack product, or a neighbourhood service. Learn as you go, improve through teamwork, and document your process so that others can follow the same path. Create systems and circles.
Teach and Earn Together
Each time you succeed, share your learning with others. Train at least two people in your model. This ensures that your progress becomes a stepping stone for someone else’s survival income.
Build a Shared Platform
Combine everyone’s efforts under a shared platform. Work on a media space. Shared visibility brings shared success.
Strengthen Your Institution
As you work on social projects, always connect them back to your institution. Use your success to showcase its values, contribute to its social image, and enrich its brand identity.
Organise outreach programs or training sessions under its banner. When your projects grow, let that growth reflect on your institution as well. This activates the true ethos of your workplace and turns your personal success into institutional pride. Work together.
Reinvest for Expansion
Use a portion of your income to support new learners and innovators. Purchase tools, arrange training, or sponsor small local initiatives. This act of reinvestment ensures that progress continues beyond you.
Simple Ideas to Begin With
Local Story Books. Collect and publish inspiring stories from your society. Tell success stories through books, articles etc. Share the earnings with the participants. Each publication becomes a source of pride and shared revenue for many people. Increase the circle.
Skill Exchange Bank
Start a local system where people exchange services or time credits. A teacher can trade hours with a repair worker or cook. This builds trust, equality, and survival income for many.
Signs of True Progress
You know you are on the right path when your side incomes begin to match or exceed your regular income, when the people you have mentored start earning consistently, and when your institution stands stronger and prouder because of your work.
Dignity as the Final Measure
Real wealth is not only about money but also about meaning. It is the respect you earn, the goodwill you spread, and the value you create in others’ lives. When your side incomes uplift others and your institution flourishes through your social efforts, you have achieved a perfect harmony between personal ambition and collective purpose. That is not just about your success. That is the legacy that we create together.
How Jolly Sebastian Composed a Life in Harmony with a Conspiring Universe
NV Paulose, Chairman, Global TV +91 98441 82044
We often imagine destiny as a thunderclap. We wish and dream for a single, dramatic moment that alters the course of our life. We wait for the lightning strike of luck, the grand gesture from the cosmos that will catapult us into the life we are meant to live at ease.
That is a fundamental misunderstanding. The universe does not respond to our desperate pleas. But, our focused, humble, and dedicated actions are always reciprocated by the bliss of the blessings. Destiny is not an event; it is a symphony. The composition of our daily choices. The orchestra of the universe joins in, hand in hand, the master raises the baton and the music transforms the symphony of the world around.
To understand this, one need not look to mythical figures or distant gurus. One need only look to Jolly Sebastian, in her home in Chempery, Kannur, whose life is a testimony to this elegant, silent collaboration.
Jolly Sebastian sketches portrait of an accomplished woman: 26 years in teaching at Fusco Senior Secondary School, Pooparamba; National representative of Society of St. Vincent De Paul and safeguarding coordinator; news reader for TV Channels; Composer of lovely songs; and a Motivational speaker and an action leader. These are not isolated streams on a resume; they are all interconnected with the symphony.
The Foundation: The Decision to Excel
The life of Jolly Sebastian is a visible proof of a life lived with profound decision and, consequently, a life met with cosmic cooperation. The journey begins in a classroom. For 26 years, Jolly Sebastian has stood as a teacher at Fusco Senior Secondary School, Pooparamba.
Her subject is Hindi, a language she holds an MA and B.Ed in. This is the first and most crucial decision: to excel in one’s chosen craft. Teaching is an act of faith. It is a belief in the potential of the unseen, a dedication to the slow, often unglamorous work of shaping minds.
Being a teacher and an expert in her field, Jolly planted a flag of intent. The universe, in its quiet way, began to respond to this clarity. Mastery in one area attracts opportunity in others. The depth of her knowledge in Hindi, coupled with her innate communication skills; her legible handwriting a subtle metaphor for clarity of thought, did not go unnoticed. It built a foundation of respect and authority. You dedicate yourself in depth, and the universe will grant you width and breadth.
The Expansion: The Confluence of Service and Voice
From the solid ground of her teaching career, other streams of purpose began to flow. Her role as the Lady Representative of the Society of St. Vincent de Paul, representing India for seven years, is not merely a title; it is an honour to a heart oriented towards service.
Her growth is filled with humility. To serve effectively, one must listen. One must understand pain without arrogance, offer solace without condescension. This role, along with being Safeguarding Coordinator of India and Joint Secretary for the SSVP in the Arch Diocese of Thellichry, required a profound emotional and ethical intelligence. It demanded that her focus shift from the self to the collective, from personal ambition to community well-being.
It is in this cradle of service that a beautiful synergy emerged. Jolly Sebastian, the teacher and servant leader, discovered another facet of her gift: her voice. For 25 years, she has been an experienced announcer and advertisement specialist for sound. For three years, she was a news reader, bringing the day’s events into homes with credibility and calm. This is not a coincidence. The same voice that explains the nuances of Hindi grammar to students, the same voice that offers comfort in charitable work, is the voice trusted to inform and persuade a wider audience. The universe provided the platform for her voice because she had already proven its value in the arenas of education and service.
Her work as a motivational speaker across India is the natural extension of this; a voice that once taught language now teaches life, its authority earned through decades of consistent, focused action.
The Art of Weaving Life: Where Family and Creativity Connect
A life of such expansive activity could easily become fragmented, a collection of competing roles. Yet, Jolly’s life demonstrates the principle that growth leads to integration, not disintegration. The key to this harmony often lies in the sanctuary of home.
Her family is her anchor and her creative partner. Her husband, Sebastian KJ, a Teacher and Art Director, is not a separate entity from her professional world but a part of its very fabric. One can imagine the conversations in the Karakkunnel home; a dynamic exchange of pedagogical insights, artistic vision, and shared purpose. This is the universe working hand in hand in its most intimate form: through a partnership that supports and amplifies one’s calling. Their children, Layana and Jerin, have grown up in an atmosphere where excellence, art, and service are not abstract concepts but the very air they breathe. This environment is the ultimate proof of a life well-lived; its values are naturally inherited, its symphony heard and continued by the next generation.
And from this fertile ground of a supportive family and a disciplined career, creativity blooms in its most vibrant forms. Jolly Sebastian is a speaker, a composer, and a scriptwriter. She directs Kathaprasangam, drama, and songs. She synthesizes articles with her experiences.
Kathaprasangam is a unique storytelling art form of Kerala. It is the art of weaving a narrative (prasangam) through a song (katha). Similarly, Jolly weaves the narratives of her teaching, her service, her faith, and her family into a cohesive and inspiring life-story.
The Unseen Hand: How the Universe Conspires
So, how does this collaboration with the universe actually manifest? It is rarely a lottery win. It is far more subtle and powerful. The skill of clear communication honed in the classroom helps her in TV Shows.
The empathy developed through the St. Vincent de Paul Society makes her a credible and powerful motivational speaker. The experience of coordinating service initiatives across India gives her ability to direct a complex drama. Each skill learned in one domain becomes a tool unexpectedly needed in another. The universe connects the dots, but only because she has been diligently placing them.
It manifests a person who is clear on her purpose; to educate, to serve, to create. She is not easily shaken by setbacks. Her mission is her anchor. The storms of hurdles, or creative blocks become manageable with her focus and experience gained through hard work. And most importantly, it manifests with humility. This is the most profound and often overlooked aspect. True growth is not about inflating the ego; it is about dissolving it. She had to listen to the needs of the poor, the fears of children, the vision of her artistic collaborators, the quiet wisdom of her faith. This constant listening is the essence of humility.
The Legacy of a Decided Heart
Jolly Sebastian’s life answers the silent question so many of us ask: “How do I find my path?” Her example suggests that you do not find it; you build it with every focused, humble, and dedicated action. You decide to be excellent in the small thing before you. You offer your voice in the service of others. You create art from the fabric of your experiences. You build a family that is a sanctuary, not just a residence.
And as you do this, a quiet miracle occurs. The universe, which once seemed indifferent or even hostile, begins to feel like a partner. Doors you never noticed begin to open. Opportunities align. Your voice finds its audience. Your service finds its purpose. Your art finds its expression. This is the silent symphony of a life like Jolly Sebastian’s.
It is a powerful reminder that the universe is not a distant force to be petitioned, but a responsive field of energy that mirrors our own commitment. Decide to excel, to grow, to serve, and to remain humble in the process, and you will find, as she has, that the entire cosmos is working hand in hand with you, composing a legacy far more beautiful than you could have ever planned.
Vitamin D₃ (cholecalciferol) is not merely a vitamin; it is a prohormone that regulates over 200 genes and influences nearly every cell in the human body.
By Dr. Devan
Autoimmune diseases — from rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, psoriasis, Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, lupus, vitiligo, to type 1 diabetes — all share a common mechanism: the immune system mistakenly attacks the body’s own tissues. Modern medicine attempts to suppress this immune overactivity using steroids and immunosuppressants, which offer only temporary relief, often at the cost of severe side effects.
But a simple, natural molecule — Vitamin D₃ — the sunshine hormone, has emerged as a powerful immune modulator capable of restoring immune balance and, in many cases, curing autoimmune disorders when used in optimal, sometimes high, physiological doses.
Vitamin D₃: More Than a Vitamin Vitamin D₃ (cholecalciferol) is not merely a vitamin; it is a prohormone that regulates over 200 genes and influences nearly every cell in the human body. Its active form, calcitriol (1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D₃), functions as a genetic switch that fine-tunes both innate and adaptive immunity.
Unlike other vitamins, D₃ directly controls immune cell behavior, determines whether inflammation proceeds or subsides, and guides the immune system to tolerate the body’s own tissues.
Mechanism of Action in Autoimmune Control High-dose Vitamin D₃ works by resetting immune tolerance through several critical pathways:
Suppression of Auto-aggressive T-Cells
Vitamin D₃ suppresses Th1 and Th17 cells, which drive autoimmune inflammation. It reduces the release of cytokines such as TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-17 that attack tissues. Stimulation of Regulatory T-Cells (Tregs)
Vitamin D₃ boosts Treg cells, the peacekeepers of the immune system. These cells prevent misdirected attacks against one’s own organs. Stabilization of Dendritic Cells
Calcitriol converts dendritic cells into a tolerogenic state — promoting immune calmness instead of activation. Reduction of Molecular Mimicry
Many autoimmune diseases arise from foreign antigens resembling self-tissue. D₃ diminishes this cross-reactivity by fine-tuning immune memory. Improvement of Gut Integrity
The gut is the cradle of immunity. Vitamin D₃ strengthens intestinal barriers, reducing leaky gut, a major source of autoimmune triggers. Anti-inflammatory and Antioxidant Effect
Vitamin D₃ lowers C-reactive protein (CRP), oxidative stress, and cytokine storms, creating a systemic anti-inflammatory environment.
The Coimbra Protocol — A Clinical Revolution Developed by Dr. Cicero Coimbra, a Brazilian neurologist, this protocol uses high-dose Vitamin D₃ (typically 10,000–60,000 IU/day) tailored to each patient, under medical supervision, to halt and reverse autoimmune activity.
The Coimbra Protocol has shown remarkable success in:
Multiple Sclerosis (MS) Psoriasis and Vitiligo Hashimoto’s and Graves’ disease Rheumatoid Arthritis Lupus (SLE) Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) Type 1 Diabetes (early phase) Clinical studies have documented:
Normalizing immune markers within months Reduction or disappearance of symptoms Discontinuation of steroids and immunosuppressants
High-Dose Therapy — Safety and Protocol High-dose Vitamin D₃ therapy must never be taken blindly. It requires medical supervision, regular calcium monitoring, and co-supplementation.
Typical Supportive Nutrients: Nutrient Function Magnesium Cofactor for Vitamin D activation Vitamin K2 (MK-7) Directs calcium into bones, prevents vascular calcification Omega-3 fatty acids Reduces inflammation Zinc + Selenium Support immune modulation and thyroid function Adequate hydration Prevents hypercalcemia Low-calcium diet Avoids excess serum calcium
Monitoring Parameters: Serum 25(OH)D levels Calcium and PTH (Parathyroid Hormone) Creatinine and urinary calcium
Target levels:
25(OH)D: 80–120 ng/mL (under supervision) PTH: Low-normal range (indicates optimal D activity)
Clinical Evidence Multiple Sclerosis (MS)
High-dose D₃ shown to reduce relapse rates by over 90% in several observational studies. MRI evidence shows fewer demyelinating plaques. Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis
Vitamin D₃ decreases anti-TPO and anti-thyroglobulin antibodies, often leading to reduction or cessation of levothyroxine therapy. Vitiligo & Psoriasis
Enhances melanocyte activity and reduces autoimmune destruction of pigment cells. Topical + oral D₃ combinations promote repigmentation. Type 1 Diabetes
Early supplementation in children significantly reduces disease onset risk by modulating pancreatic immunity. Rheumatoid Arthritis
High-dose D₃ reduces joint pain, swelling, and ESR/CRP, leading to remission in some cases.
Diet and Lifestyle Synergy To maximize the autoimmune-curing potential of Vitamin D₃:
Sun Exposure
20–30 minutes of full-body sunlight between 10 AM – 2 PM boosts natural D₃ synthesis. Even 15 minutes daily can produce up to 10,000 IU. Anti-inflammatory Diet
Emphasize omega-3s, turmeric, leafy greens, garlic, and berries. Avoid sugar, gluten, and processed foods that trigger immune activation. Gut Repair
Include probiotics and prebiotic fibers. A healthy gut microbiome enhances Vitamin D receptor (VDR) sensitivity. Stress Reduction
Cortisol dysregulation impairs immune balance. Yoga, deep breathing, and meditation augment D₃’s calming immune effect.
Dr. Devan’s Perspective “Autoimmunity is not your body turning against you — it is your immune system crying for regulatory balance. Vitamin D₃, in its full physiological potency, provides that balance by restoring the forgotten harmony between defense and tolerance.”
Summary Table Parameter Normal Range / Role 25(OH)D Optimal Level 80–120 ng/mL Autoimmune Benefit Immunoregulation, tolerance induction High Dose Used In Multiple sclerosis, vitiligo, Hashimoto’s, RA, psoriasis Adjunct Nutrients Magnesium, Vitamin K2, Zinc, Selenium Monitoring Serum calcium, PTH, renal function Outcome Reduction or reversal of autoimmune attack
High-dose Vitamin D₃ therapy represents one of the most promising, natural, and physiologically sound treatments for autoimmune diseases. By correcting an ancient deficiency in sunlight and restoring immune equilibrium, Vitamin D₃ transforms the narrative of autoimmunity from lifelong struggle to complete recovery.
“The body heals when you give it what it was always designed to have — sunlight, nourishment, and faith in its innate intelligence.” — Dr. Devan
ATIL–2025 Inaugurated at University College, Mangaluru: Aravind Bolar Highlights the Link Between Food, Health and Education
Mangaluru, Nov. 5: “Quality education can be achieved even through initiatives like ATIL,” said Tulu film actor and cultural icon Aravind Bolar, inaugurating the ATIL–2025 programme held at the University College, Mangaluru.
Speaking on the occasion, he emphasized that good health begins with good food habits. “It is not enough to just eat food; one must also understand how it is prepared and the benefits of each ingredient. Only then can we ensure proper care of every family member. Loving care is the need of the hour,” he added.
Bolar noted that food festivals give students valuable practical experience. “Through experience and knowledge, one can face any difficult situation with confidence. Experience is the key to success in life. Hence, students should learn patiently and gain experience from every opportunity,” he advised.
Presiding over the function, Principal Prof. Ganapathi Gowda said that students must begin to take care of their health at an early age. He remarked that ATIL provides a platform for developing such awareness. “In today’s world, with many food options available, traditional and basic foods are disappearing. We must pay more attention to preserving them,” he cautioned.
As part of the World Tourism Day celebration, prizes were distributed to the winners of a quiz competition organized by the Department of Tourism.
Prof. Jagadeesh, Head of the Department of Tourism, Prof. Jayavanth Nayak from the Department of Economics, Dr. Parinitha Shetty, Dr. Sreeraj, and Bharath Kumar were among the faculty members present on the occasion.
The Joy of Giving | the Power of a Story | Positive Journalism in Action | Turning Recognition into Compassion | Global TV
Global TV brings the spirit of positive journalism with a unique vision that uplifts and connects people. Inspired by the values of Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam, the concept of the Food Coupon was created to turn every inspiring story into an opportunity for compassion.
How the Food Coupon Works
Every personality featured on Global TV, whether an innovator, educator, or leader, is invited to purchase a Food Coupon worth ₹500.
This amount is a simple and direct contribution meant to help someone in need. The message printed on every coupon reads:
“Pay direct to a Beneficiary.”
There are no middlemen, no formalities, only a sincere act of sharing. The giver and the receiver remain connected through the quiet joy of a good deed. We suggest the beneficiary to do something creative in the chain of goodness meant for society building.
Turning Recognition into Responsibility
The beauty of this initiative lies in its simplicity. Every time someone is celebrated on Global TV, their moment of recognition also becomes a moment of giving. It transforms appreciation into responsibility, fame into service, and storytelling into community building.
Supported by Career Club and Time Bank
The Food Coupon initiative is supported by Career Club and Time Bank, two platforms that encourage people to invest their time, skills, and compassion for the common good. Together, they form a circle of positive action that strengthens both individuals and society.
A Vision that Feeds Hope
The Food Coupon is about bringing people together to think and act. It creates ripple effects to improve the standard of living of the people at the bottom line of the society. We believe that every story of success carries a duty to uplift others.
As Dr. Kalam inspired us: “Let positive journalism become the light that transforms truth into nation building.” Through this initiative, Global TV carries that light forward with every story and every act of kindness.
India, you have won this World Cup. Your congratulations are coming. Just give me a few minutes, because first I want to tell you why.
Each and every one of you is the reason. For the past few days, even before the Australia match, there was belief. It was in the streets, in the air, across all of India. You could feel it, that unshakable belief.
Today, in the stands, you had Sachin Tendulkar, you had Rohit Sharma, I even saw V. V. S. Laxman. And I asked myself, where were the South Africans? The former cricketers we look up to? Who showed up from our side? Nobody. Not one of them thought this event was important enough to attend. Not even our Minister of Sport was there.
And yet you were. That is the difference between our countries. That is what the people at the top in South Africa think about cricket.
Our men and women worked so hard. They played brilliantly. They had every chance to win today. But what does it feel like for them when none of their heroes show up? What message does that send? That they were expected to lose?
That was the difference today. Yes, India performed beautifully in those crucial moments, but it was your people, your heroes, your love for the game that carried them through.
Imagine looking up and seeing Rohit Sharma in the crowd. Imagine shaking hands with Sachin Tendulkar before the match and hearing, “Go well. Good luck.” That is powerful. That is belief.
Australians and the English always say South Africans do not care about cricket. And today, for the first time, I believed it.
Because you, India, you live and breathe this sport. From the people at the top to the fans in the streets, it is in your blood. It is breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
You are the true winners of this World Cup. And you know what? You deserve it.
