PM visits Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium

A news item says that PM was shown various facilities at the complex during his 25 minutes visit to Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium. The visit was announced well in advance. He was there only for 25 minutes. He only saw what was shown to him. He said finish work fast.

What all this tells you? The work has not been finished yet and only 34 days are left for the CW Games. This unfinished work was in those areas which were shown to PM. What about those areas which were not shown to him?

Games OC gets the intimation of PM visit in advance. They prepare some areas which can be shown to him. Yet he asked them to finish the work. PM has completed a formality and OC gets his stamp of approval as he did not directly say that work is yet to be finished, and mind it that he was shown some areas.

I wonder what purpose this visit served except being a PR exercise both for the Government and the Games OC. In view of adverse reports in the media PM should have carried out a surprise check and that would have given him the real picture.

Anyway, country lost lot of money in organizing this fruitless visit.

The 2010 loot-festival

I join Chetan Bhagat in requesting Indian citizens not to cheer the 2010 loot-fest being organized by the Indian Government in the guise of Commonwaelth Games. For long I have been raising objections to these games on my blogs, Facebook, Twitter and other platforms. Today I feel elated that Chetan Bhagat, a celebrity writer, also thinks that it is a day-light robbery being carried out with the blessings of the Government.

Commonwealth Club is a symbol of slavery. India should have rejected it long back. I feel hurt when the Government of my country takes pride in hosting these games. The games organizing committee and the Government has put our great nation to shame by first organizing these games and then showing to the world that how corrupt they are.

My dear fellow citizens, please do not cheer these games as by doing so you will be cheering a symbol of slavery and corruption.
