There was a big deal of hooplah about an event which was going to happen.Huge money was involved, and so it was a bigger bribe-giving chain ceremony that begun!And when work was almost done with exorbitant money spent.The clock was ticking away!!
And from the heavens came a blessing/curse in disguise, it rained!The downpour revealed leaks and damages in the preparations as well as the system.It revealed the low standards of materials and men involved in it...Finally, the rain managed to wear away
the national pride.Ran caused more expenditure and then one fine day tax payers realised it was their money which was spent and so they questioned ---Why conduct an event which is above capacity n a given time?And even when it was taken up, why drain all the money down the loo by spending unreasonably.
I would like to ask a question--Why was Marketing outsourced to an Australian company(which failed miserably, but enjoyed a treasure bounty)?
Maybe because they couldn't market India as an active sports-athletics nation...Well when the drama is over the fact would anyways be out...
Kalmadi was an obvious comedy..
Height of overspending was---buying a tissue roll for Rs.8000 each.May be they wanted us to know that we pay for cleaning shit!
Lets hope that our national pride remains intact after the event..Also lets hope we get no complaints on rats in the room,leaking stadiums and creaky chairs!
But a free performance by the Indian Maestro of music is definitely lesser burden on the huge budget :)!

When I remain silent....
There are very few things which make me shut up and keep my opinions to myself.This basic instinct of being argumentative has put me in a pickle a lot of times.But it gives me a sense of deep satisfaction.
When I remain silent it surely means its either one of these few things:
That I ve fought with someone.
I am bored of routine life.
And when I don't write in my blog it means:
That my college wifi sucks bigtime!!
Or I am holidaying in southeast asia :))....
