Commonwealth Mess, Who Is Responsible?
It's a shame for India and all Indians. As I write this piece today the CGF chief Michael Fennell's is leading the CGF General Assembly delegates on tour of CWG venues in Delhi and the delegates are visibly and seriously annoyed and disgusted at the preparedness of the games.
The government is so under prepared and is brashly trying to put up a bold face claiming to be able to achieve in next 11 months what they could not in the last 8 years.
Delhi unfortunately remains as un-civic as it can, the infrastructure as fragile as it can and yet... Impetus Research, a leading market research and opinion polling agency in India has started a new series of very short instant polls on issues faced by our country.
The latest one is a poll on preparedness of India for hosting Commonwealth Games 2010. the link to the poll hosted online is this.
Please log in and share your thoughts on the same. The real time results can be seen on completion of the survey.
But does all this public anguish filter down to those who are misusing public funds and still not being able to make it, is a big question.
Its a shame, a big fat shame ! As per the above survey by Impetus Research, the first thing that the government should do is take it up as a national challenge and not a Delhi government headache, bring this event directly under PM's purview, bring in foriegn experts and let the entire event be managed by some young and influencial person such as Rahul Gandhi, who can use his position and connections to get the preparations moving at breakneck speed. Bodies like IOC and its inefficient people including chairman be removed from managing the event who neither have any experiance nor a will to make this event a success.
