I feel BJP is making a mistake by offering Sreesanth a seat in the election. Even though he is a celebrity, he had made many mistakes in past, and people should not forget the biggest crime he committed by fixing the match. 

I am surprised that people only remember the match fixing charges but do not know the fact that Sreeshant was absolved  of all the charges levelled against him..

Sreeshant is no more connected with IPL Match fixing cases. The court declared him free from betting and match fixing cases. There is nothing wrong in contesting elections on the ticket of BJP.

Sreesanth meets two important criterons in Indian politics of having an alleged criminal past and being a celebrity. Birds of same feathers flock together.

Sreesanth is still banned by BCCI so when he is not eligible to play for India or domestic cricket then how can he be a right choice to serve people is beyond my understanding.

May be BJP has not many good candidates in Kerala. So they have to field somebody- good or bad, whatever be.

I am sure you might have guessed the reason by now, if he was fielding for the congressis, no one would have objected or raise such questions! LOL

Two points here, according to you BCCI is supetior to Delhi court and if Sreeshant plays cricket he is the right choice,..

i don't get why people do such things which they shouldn't do, whereas about sreesanth i think he didn't know the spelling of p in politics.

@Kalyani, I don't know about others but I have started this thread with a doubt in my mind is not because I am Congress supporter. Till date if you have followed my comments I have never sided with any political party, it's because I am very much disinterested in politics and you can say my knowledge is also very little about politics. I felt it's not morally right and so put forward my viewpoint.
