Abusive way of Talking
Visiting the well furnished air conditioned Billiards Hall of the MA Stadium sometimes confuse a person whether he is visiting a private pool club or a government run sports facility.
The abuse language used by the young participants within the playing arena gives a bad feeling, especially to those visiting the venue for the first time. Sitting here and there with `cigarettes' and `chutki' pouches in their hands, these young boys, most of whom belong to well off families, earning a bad name to the game of billiards and snooker.
It becomes the duty of both J&K State Sports Council, the custodian of the playing facility and the J&K Billiards and Snooker Association to set the things in order else no one would love to send their wards to the stadium to learn the cue game.
