Is Cricket hindering the progress of other sports in India?

No sport is popular in India other than Cricket.  Cricket is treated like religion  in India. It was brought by British, so it has became a tradition. So no one can change this. It is not in Olympic but the organisation which organise cricket  in India is very much influential, powerful and wealthy. 
The organisation  has hindered the progress of other sports including Football. People does not want to see other sports. So the organisations of other sports are very weak. They can't invest much for the progress of their sports.Young generation does not want to look after other sports  because they think that other sports are not famous and don't have much money  which could sustain their life. This is also a big problem. Like, an Indian parent does not want to make their children footballer.  India has organised under 18 FIFA World Cup which is a big achievement. I think it brought some changes but the Cricket World Cup that happened next year neutralized the changes. 
Olympics is not  a big event in India. No one know the players of other sports. They only remember their names for the civil services examinations which take in India every year. Also government does not spend much  money on other sports which is also a big issue. 
But for  a developing country like India, it is also not possible to spend much money on other sports. Before India doesn't become much advanced  enough, there is no way that other sports can grow in India. Even global sports like Football  is only famous in North East and some parts of India. But after all it is in the hands of Indians of which sport they like  or want to see. Till they want to see cricket  there's no way for growth of other sports in India.

Mesopotamian Civilization Summary - An Overview

The story of writing, astronomy, and law. The story of civilization itself begins in one place. Not Egypt, not Greece, not Rome. But Mesopotamia. Mesopotamia is an exceedingly fertile plain situated between the Tigris and the Euphrates Rivers. For five millennia,the small strip of land situated in what is today Iraq, Kuwait and Syria fostered innovations that would change the world forever. Inhabited for nearly 12,000 years, Mesopotamia's stable climate, rich soil and steady supply of fresh water made it ideal for agriculture to develop and thrive. About 6,000 years ago,seemingly overnight, some of these agricultural settlements blossomed into some of the world's first cities. In the period between 4,000 and 3,100 BC, Mesopotamia was dotted with a constellation of competing city states. At one point, they were unified under the Akkadian Empire and then broke apart forming the empires of Assyria and Babylon.  Despite near constant warfare, innovation and development thrived in a...
