Welcome to Atlantic city

Very thought provoking article by Gautam Bhatia, 'Will The Games Be Worth It'. He talks about fiscal malpractice in the Common Wealth Games (CWG) and the unaccounted figures that the country is ignoring. He draws comparison from other countries which are intriguing. Over and above all this, he tells us about the aftermath and impact of corruption (the question of engaging other poor countries for such mega events).http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/home/opinion/edit-page/Will-The-Games-Be-Worth-It/articleshow/6487193.cms

I think he has got a point there. It is not just our pride that we are fighting here. It is the confidence and the trust of whether other poor countries (except for Canada, Britain and Australia) as he mentioned, would also be given a chance to host the CWG or not. The side effects are vast and it would be shameful if we are not able to set the benchmark. Would any of our organizers, builders and contractors be the lifeline?
