Picture(s) of The Day: The Commonwealth Games

October 15, 2010



After months of speculations and controversies, Delhi Commonwealth Games concluded on Oct 14th on a relatively successful note. India was also able to win record number of medals, 101 total medals,  and stood in second position in medal tally after Australia. I am glad that the event went on successful but now it’s time for introspection and a thorough investigation to find the culprits who misused the public money in the name of the games and almost humiliated the whole nation in front of the world. There is no doubt that corruption was rampant; successful closing and opening ceremonies shouldn’t cover up those glitches. Indian media has a history of short term memory but I hope they pursue the issue this time.
