Baichung to launch football academy for underprivileged Delhi walah

Surprised to hear that Baichung Bhutia is launching a football academy for underprivileged in NCR of India (near NOIDA, DELHI, GURGAON). Why he chose the region and the children? There is no dearth for  poor, talented and ungroomed talents in his  home town and north eastern region. He should have started the academy in the region  before going to get name and fame in the metros. What is in his mind we dont know but  one thing is clear, this guy wants media publicity and endorsement in the NCR region which he wont get in his home town.

Saturday, October 30 will mark a new beginning for India football captain, Baichung Bhutia. For, the most popular Indian footballer, will venture into identifying and coaching young talent in the country by starting a football school for underprivileged and orphaned children at Noida, New Delhi. 

 He was reported to have said that "This is one of my dream projects. Thirty per cent of the slots will be reserved for students from poor backgrounds. These students will be trained free of charge. I have taken some land on lease in Delhi for the school. It will not be a residential facility."

I want to ask him is the people of north east India more richer and privileged than those staying in the NCR.

It is learnt that the project is a joint venture with Portugal's Carlos Queiroz football academy. About this football school to be opened in the Capital, Bhutia said: "There are many children who want to play football but don't have the resources, especially kids from poor families and those residing on the streets."  

If the Football academy is opened in any of the north east Indian states, we may see   football  players  from our region who can play in FIFA.  He  does not want his successors, so neglecting the region. Bhutia never loves his  region as we love him and proud to be the footballer from our region, God blessed him!
