Common Wealth Games 2010-Do you mean come-man wealth games??

Common wealth games are just round the corner and list of players withdrawing is growing day by day. Players are citing reasons as security and pollution. Has been these games in any of US cities players would not have done the same.

India has always been under an impression of undeveloped, backward and poor country and it don’t have that infrastructure to host such a grand saga.

And on the other hand is our Indian government which is trying to pull out money from every possible field and rendering them short of resources for coming time. No matter that India is the fastest growing economy in the world but we still are not ready to let flow rivers of money on such games and look away from all the bigger issues in our country for which our budget is meager meal. We always lament about insufficient monetary funds for various areas. Definitely these games are looked upon as an entry ticket to global entertainment business but the long lasting repercussions of spending money are to bear by Indian citizens. Tourism is going to boom, no doubt but then we cannot rely completely on tourism to compensate for this event.

And top of all are news floating around for which we all hail India is corruption. Recent news reflect the big frauds been done in purchase of equipments and many more. DDA is hiding face when asked about the delay in construction flats for CWG officials. Whom not to blame, whole pond is muddy! On one side we are giving excuses and trying to show that we are so poor and we are trying our best to use them efficiently. Everybody knows which efficiency we are talking about. Corruption has not only dismantled India's image on world's map but can become a black dote on CWG’s history as well. We are hosting most expensive common wealth games you know and in this dismal state how can one rely on the transparency of further conduction of games and results. Top level athletes will never want themselves to be a victim to corrupted Indian machinery. Nobody wants to spill water on their past glorious records and leading them nowhere. This might be a big reason for their lacking interests. This is just a start, we still have 59 days to go for CWG’10, hope to get more stuff to babble about. It’s India!!!
