In the aftermath of the social media storm created due to the sexist comments made by Indian cricketers Hardik Pandya and KL Rahul on the show Koffee with Karan, the Committee of Administrators (CoA) plans to conduct a behavioural counselling programme for the Indian team, which would include players from all age groups and the A squads to avoid future incidents, reports The New Indian Express.
The two cricketers have been suspended by Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) with their fate to be decided by a Supreme Court appointed ombudsman.
The official responded in the negative when asked if Rahul and Pandya would attend the gender sensitisation classes separately. The duo received a strong backlash over their comments made on the controversial chat show hosted by Bollywood filmmaker Karan Johar.
"There will be no separate sessions for Rahul and Pandya. The entire Indian team will attend sessions and these two boys, as centrally contracted cricketers, will attend the same," he said.

The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
