Success indeed!By: jatin | Thursday , 5 Nov '09 18:38:35 PM Reply | Forward What a nice cooperation between contractors, builders, bureaucrats and politicians. Let them loot the country and we will have a false pride of national prestige. I am sure whatever may happen in the CWG, it will be "astounding success" declared by our politicians. All the concerned politicians, builders and bureaucrats will have a world tour starting with Switzerland with their families. Success indeed.

Budgets for CWG GamesBy: Himanshu | Thursday , 5 Nov '09 17:46:05 PM Reply | Forward The budget is doubled?? Wow...and is anybody going to be held responsible for it?? Will any jobs be lost?? If the same would have happened in the Corporate World..yes. In the Government..no. And the reasons are so flimsy...volunteers increased, length of Baton relay increased. In a country as poor as ours, money is wasted on such stupid causes and nobody is held responsible.

1620K CRORES FOR CWGBy: NIRANJAN | Thursday , 5 Nov '09 16:49:33 PM Reply | Forward THE DELAYING OF THE PROJECTS WAS ORCHASTRATED BY THE CONTRACTORS IN CAHOOTS WITH THE GOVT OFFICIALS TO MAKE THE GOVT. NERVOUS ABOUT THE COMPLETION OF THE CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS IN TIME FOR THE CWG. THIS WAY THE GOVT. DID THE BEST IT COULD DO, WHICH WAS TO THROW MORE MONEY AT THE PROJECTS, WITHOUT REALLY TAKING CARE OF THE DELAY PROBLEMS. I AM CERTAIN THE MAJORITY OF THE AMOUNT WILL WIND UP IN THE POCKETS OF CONTRACTORS AND GOVT. BABUs!
