A bizarre incident has been reported from Maharashtra’s Jalgaon district; a local political leader allegedly destroyed a cricket pitch using a tractor after reportedly being slighted by tournament organizers.
The incident occurred in the Chopda taluka, where a local cricket tournament was being hosted. According to eyewitnesses and local reports, the leader was allegedly upset over not being formally invited to the event or given a prominent role in the inauguration ceremony.
In a fit of rage, the political leader drove a tractor onto the carefully prepared turf and plowed through the pitch, rendering it completely unplayable just before a scheduled match.
The act left young local cricketers and organizers in shock, as weeks of preparation and financial investment into the ground were ruined in minutes.
