The Commonweath Games to remember!



The Commonwealth Games are just a few days away – on October 3, 2010, to be exact - and effects for this great event are not ready yet in India. The Indians are working, frantically, in Delhi, to put everything into place. The facilities are said to be unsatisfactory, both in terms of health and convenience. Add to it, people are also muttering about physical safety, from radicals and activists.

Absurdly, in these frantic times, matters have been made worse by the collapsing and falling of some infrastructures – footbridge, roof, bed - something always seems to go wrong, consistently. Just as I am writing this, the news on TV in the living room is saying that a snake had been found in the living quarters of a South African athlete! What a testing time for the Games organizers!

Looking at the speed of how the mishaps are reported, I have a feeling that the reporters are camped there, gleefully waiting for some new misfortune to happen, to see who reports it first!

Already, many sportsmen have, and are withdrawing from the event. If India manages to hold the Games, and bring them to a successful close, on October 14, the talking point would be not who broke the records, but how India was able to get the Games going, amidst so many problems and sticky situations, not to mention about the embarrassments. These would be the Games that no one would forget. All for the wrong reasons.
