One spends on something necessary, something appropriate, and it is as it should be. But can it be a "splurge" if that is done?
Like, for instance, when a civic body "swings into action to upgrade the Dadoji Konddev stadium" which the the newspaper reports was "dilapidated"?
Especially, when the stadium "will be prepared for holding competitions and providing better amenities to young athletes to undergo training with less hassles at the stadium. Questions are being raised about the poor maintenance of the sprawling playing arena, which is the only such facility in the city".
And this necessary spending becomes a splurge? Splurge is when the spending is extravagant.
The Times of India, guilty of this misunderstanding, both in the headline and the text, should be careful.
