CWG 2010 Delhi The 70000 Cr games Ended successfully on 13th of October at Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium Delhi. India wins total 101 Medals and ranked 2nd.Now we are enough Capable to host Olympics Game in India. Just forget about the Negative viwes about scams and all.
The Commonwealth Games 2010 are over finally and nobody has or should have any doubt about India's successful hosting of the mega event. Yes, there are dark sides and controversies making huge hue and cry, but will it be fair if we overlook the other side of it, the side which has enough justifications for being positive?
Before the CWG started, every day we came across news questioning India's ability in hosting the gaming extravaganza. There were so many reasons the New Delhi Commonwealth Games were under threat, construction delays and security concerns being the significant ones. There were pictures in front page of many leading newspapers showing the loopholes of the infrastructure. They are not and can't be blamed to be fake, but what does matter the most is all those loopholes were plugged and India delivered a successful show.
Putting aside the story of the CWG scam for a while, just think what the Games has brought to us, what it has offered to the sporting community. The Indians who are way too crazy about Cricket, the Commonwealth Games have spurred an interest among them in other sporting disciplines. When the Indian athletes were winning gold medals in various events, audience were shouting and waving the tri-colour in their support - a much common scene in a cricket stadium.
The athletes of our country have also contributed to the success story of this year's Commonwealth Games with their historic performances that put India at the second position on the medal standings behind Australia. But too much focus on the negative aspects such as the overall cost and the pre-games controversies have shadowed all and we are left with bold headlines telling about the so called CWG scam.
The Central Vigilance Commission has found too many discrepancies. No questions on these findings, we don't support the corruption involved in it. But there are truths that have been remained untold till yet. The infrastructure might take time to get ready, but the venues like Jawaharlal Nehru Sports Complex, Thyagraj Sports Complex and Indira Gandhi Sports Complex were all of very high standards, especially the housing facilities have been praised as world-class. There were locker rooms, lounge and a dedicated transport lane for players. About 100,000 police and military personnel secured the Capital, and security precautions were intense.
There are positive vibes about CWG that we, Indians, need to realize and spread. Let's cherish those 101 medals. That's what the intention behind these words.
