COMMONWEALTH GAMES 2010:

COMMONWEALTH GAMES 2010 There were 54 members of the commonwealth nation and 71 teams participating in the games in which there were 260 events in 17 disciplines. The four home nations of the United Kingdom:- England , Scotland , Wales and Northern Ireland-send separate teams to the commonwealth games and individuals teams were also sent from the British Crown dependencies of Guernsey , Jersey and Isle of man. Many of the British overseas territories also send their on teams.

PROBLEMS:
PROBLEMS The games in India have been marred by financial irregularities exposing a large corruption scam . Corruption is not uncommon around the world , experts are bewildered since the government is not taking a stand against the perpetrators. The Indian central vigilance committee has warned of sub standard construction that have not met safety requirement

Scam in Village:
Scam in Village Real estate developer EMAAR-MGF may have to forfeit Rs. 183 crores it deposited with the government of India as a bank guarantee for the Commonwealth Games Village that it built. EMAAR is being penalised for structural defects, and inadequate amenities including insufficient power and water supply for the apartments that housed the delegates from 71 countries that participated in the Games. NDTV has accessed documents that chronicle complaints about the Games Village filed by the representatives of the participating countries. From poor plumbing to water leaks and concerns about structural safety, the catalogue of grievances is extensive and indicting .Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit was asked to get the Village in shape just days before the Games began.

International media criticism :

International media criticism INDIAS poor management of the Commonwealth Games (CWG) was continuing to bring it a bad name. Corruption scandals marred the CWG even before they commenced. Thousands of pounds were heisted by fraudsters organizing the game. Leaky roofs, collapsing walkways, clogged latrines, snakes and spiders in the athlete quarters, lack of food for the broadcast journalists. Members of the Indian flesh trade were brought in as a desperate measure. CWG organizers moral deprivation knew no bounds as they stooped to the lowest levels to meet their heinous ends. However, international media took notice of the poor moral standards and became the harshest critics of the CWG organizers.

Scam in Ticket:
Scam in Ticket Another controversy dogging the CWG since the start is the issue of ticket sales. While the general public is unable to buy tickets, with all outlets reporting that all the venues have been sold out, one witnesses nearly half the venues empty for every event. The fact is that Indian greed, which knows no bounds, has got the better of the CWG organizers, who were trying their level best to get rich quick in every way they can because they think organizing the CWG was a one time opportunity which may not present itself again. Throwing caution to the winds, they have been raking in the moolah from their ill gotten methods, giving the game and their country a bad name. Indian aspirations to outmatch arch rival China in organizing an spectacular event, like the Beijing Olympics has been sacrificed at the altar of greed and sleaze. 2/20/2012

Poor Management:
Poor Management On the first night of swimming, debris landed in the swimming pool, causing delays ahead of a race. It is believed that part of the ceiling or its paint had fallen off. Before the last night of swimming finals, the filtration system broke down and the pool was turbid and murky during the warmup session and the finals, and the pool has been described as the least clear ever seen for a swimming competition. A disproportionate number of swimmers fell ill with intestinal complaints, leading to concerns over the cleanliness and sanitation of the pool. Early suspicions rested on the quality of water in the swimming pools of the SPM Complex , but other competing teams, including South Africa, reported no such illness. Daily water quality tests were being carried out on the water of the pools, as mandated by the event standards. Additional tests were ordered after news of the illnesses, but they also did not find anything amiss. A dog entered the athletics arena.

Collapse of Foot over-bridge:

Collapse of Foot over-bridge With just 12 days to go for the Games, a new foot over-bridge near the main venue of the Games, Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium, collapsed, injuring 23 labourers, five of them critically The location couldn't have been more inappropriate for the Games, as the overbridge collapsed at the doorstep of the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium, where the opening and closing ceremonies are to be held. More than 6000 athletes from the Commonwealth countries started arriving , but with facilities for them - forget Delhiites - now evidently clearly in a state of collapse. 12 Before After

Financial corruption:
Financial corruption The Central Vigilance Commission, involved in probing the alleged corruption in various Commonwealth Games-related projects, has found discrepancies in tenders and alleged misappropriation amounting to about Rs 8,000 crore. The total misappropriation amount may touch a figure of Rs 5,000 to Rs 8,000 crore, which is quite huge and alarming. Complaints regarding alleged embezzlement of Rs 1.5 crore in the purchase of HOVA Courts for Badminton stadium, malpractices in the tender for kitchen equipment installation, misappropriation in video board tenders for remodelling and upgradation of Major Dhyan Chand National Stadium were received by the CVC and in all cases.

Kalmadis hands in scam:

Kalmadis hands in scam CWG head honcho Suresh Kalmadi files a police complaint as a huge stadium, apparently constructed to accommodate over one lakh spectators, goes missing. kalmadi vows to capture the pickpocket behind the daring heist. A small scam of a few thousand of crores follows over the minting of medals for the Commonwealth Games emerges.

:
Suresh Kalmadi says a sum of Rs 25,200 crore has been allocated to hire a time machine for Commonwealth Games organisers to have a look at how much toilet paper was bought during the conduct of 1896 Athens Olympics. When asked where the time machine was, Kalmadi pointed to a Raleigh Cycle parked at the Jawaharlal Nehru stadium.

CBI Investigation:
CBI Investigation There is hustle and bustle at various corners of political arena. There were allegations, counter allegations and defensive statements in answer. In the wake of early morning raid conducted by CBI at the pune and Delhi Residence of Kalamadi key BJP ministers started attacking the Govt saying congress Govt is protecting the corrupt and scamsters. CWG scam is estimated to be worth 700 Cr

Kalmadi was not alone:

Kalmadi was not alone Suresh Kalmadi who is alleged as the key conspirator of CWG scam may not be the only person involved in this scam, as per Tarun Vijay there may be several officials of PMO and Delhi Government who have aided Kalmadi in the crime. Unfortunately it is highlighted that some of the important documents and files have gone missing and CBI suspects that they have been destroyed.
