India is hosting the XIX Commonwealth Games 2010 in the National capital from October 3-14.
Amidst the media glare and focus on the games, there are shocking revelations being unearthed every now and then.
First there was the expose of rampant corruption.
Not with foot over-bridge falling, ceilings caving in, filth all around the games village, shoddy construction and so on.
One can only hope that this is the rock bottom and there only one way to go - UP.
But is there enough time? With just about 11 days left for the games to start and the athletes supposed to arrive tomorrow.
I hope against hope that we somehow stitch together everything on time and organise successful games. No hop of having a magnificent magnanimous one, but atleast a decent facesaving one would do.
All this really makes me wonder - Whose wealth is it anyway?
Will those culprits who plundered away the wealth be ever punished? or they will walk away scoot-free just like the Britishers did in 1947 !!!
Pray we have a successful games. Keeping my fingers crossed.
Ok, now go and listen to a stupid A.R Rahman games song. Even here they couldn't come up with a peppy foottapping number.
