Looks like the disgraceful incidents have caused some heads to turn,
let’s hope everything move in the right direction at least from now on…
However, if the authority can take the brunt of criticism and ignominy they should postpone it and punish the guilty…

I think the CWG will go forth. There may be hiccups along the way. But it will take place. Then there might be probes into some of the corruption charges. And after a few years, the media will tire of this and everything will be forgotten.

I feel it should be called off...terrorism, rain, Yamuna floods, incompetence, Indian Standard Time...do we need any more reasons?

I am getting tired of writing about CWG, and am worried that things will probably get worse in the days to come. My biggest worry is not whether bridges and stadiums will hold (I hasten to add that I fully understand and respect your concern for your daughter). I am worried about what is going to happen AFTER the Games. Even if some kind of enquiry is conducted, there are so many agencies involved that it will be easily possible for them to pass the blame around endlessly. Authorities have already made downright insensitive and irresponsible statements (Kalmadi, Dixit, Bhanot, Reddy... the list is endless) to defend the recent incidents. Just imagine what will happen once the Games are over?
And yes, I remember Asiad '82 as clearly as if it had happened yesterday. The sense of pride and excitement was palpable everywhere. Just compare the mascots. Appu became a household name in India. And now? Games are less than a fortnight away, does anyone even mention Sheroo? Appu symbolized a unifying force. Sheroo might just end up symbolizing the opposite.

Excellent, heartfelt post, and I have to admit that I'm visiting your blog after a long hiatus.

On the bright side, the organizers of the Commonwealth Games have ensured that for the first time, the entire world cares about the Commonwealth Games. (I am being sarcastic of course)

I for one, will be much happier when this fiasco ends.
