With so many evils in our societies still if we are able to make in the
list of top five superpowers and top fifteen economy, I can't just imagine what will
be our position if we just normalize our condition, if not excellent. you can do
one thing you can thank those people who have been working day and night to
make it possible"[Panel I] I know the preparations have missed some deadlines. All the college
students have been working there as volunteers and my friends say they have never seen
such a mess anywhere in the village."He Further added, "Feel proud that India was able
to defeat the developed nations, Canada in particular, in the bidding. It is not so
easy maintaining such a big nation with various religions and ethnicity. Unless we Indians don't
accept we suck at choosing politicians, or participating in politics, India will remain a land
of miseries and contradictions.Above all everybody has their right to their opinion, if one has
read the very first chapter in Civics in middle school. Many earlier commonwealth games ran
out of money during preparations."[Panel II] "It is this callous 'chalta hai' attitude / 'let
us be happy with what we have' or what people proudly call 'jugaad' is the
bane of India. Many proposals were made to build national level and state level competitions
aka NBA and so on. India launched its mission to moon worth 384 crore with
a GDP of 7+. Even America is having problems where central states and native Americans
time to time comes up with a demand for independence. But during recession, when America
and other markets were down, companies were getting bankrupt and people were loosing jobs. 60%
of all agricultural produce in India is wasted before it reaches consumers, India tops the
list in everything from poverty, nike requin AIDS, Cancer, et al. where our TAX money goes!!" She
further added, "I am afraid nobody has an answer for this question."[Panel I] "our tax
money is going to the right place at-least they did a good job in a
very short time. When asked various people in India they said now they have a
mixed feeling of proud and shame. And for that we need such attractions as games.
You should see the picture of the commonwealth games venues. 'What have you done?' is
an irrelevant question, rather a nonsensical defence. After seeing the dirty pictures of the toilets
of commonwealth games village in Delhi this month, the feeling of pride which Indians had
in their mind turned somewhat into a feeling of shame. I believe only capitalism and
market oriented policies will bring change. We should mourn it so that there will be
a change, there is a realisation. So I feel it may be a fake too.
It's left to you which side you choose. Each minute of every Citizen adds to
building the nation!"Sucking at choosing politicians, that's what people think now. I have myself heard
and read on several other blogs and forums. Some don't cast their vote and some
do caste paid votes.[Panel I] Continuing the discussion, one person said: "I have read the
report showing that India bribed other commonwealth nations to win the bid. But still hoping
it will be a successful event.[Panel II] "It's good to share such news[criticizing] let everyone
know... It's one opportunity which India wouldn't like to lose to project its power to
the world. We had to start from the scratch. But we are trying that's a
good thing. But we still want to appreciate very few good things the Government does,
which as a matter of fact is their job! Yes, air max france I am a capitalist. Farmers
who provide food to the whole nation die without food. Those are signs of a
maturing economy. But the report also said that our main competitor Canada was not so
innocent as well, they offered bribe of 70K where as India offered bribe of 100K.
It was not awarded on merits. if u can't do anything, then we have to
shut our mouth... But that was not the intention or not even developing local talent.
Which is a global problem. But India at the end has done its job completely,
earning the thumbs up and praise from those who strongly blamed the organizers is a
big achievement. I hope they will learn from commonwealth mistakes."Difficulties and hurdles did come in
the way of preparations. It's a national shame, but few people want to celebrate it.
No side is wrong, only the perception is different.[Panel I] "I didn't add fuel to
fire.... You will be really amazed that such infrastructure exists in India. And the only
thing the media and people could blame on were corrupted organizers, lack of inter department
coordination and at some point of time people themselves and media for only covering and
reporting the negative aspect of the games. And we are at good position now, though
we are nowhere in comparison with Japan, China and Singapore which also had tough times
in 1940s. It's called Right to Speech. Even in Melbourne commonwealth, players were forced to
live in hotels as their village was not ready. I have my job to focus.
Nobody then talked about that report again. "India is a nice country with Strong economy
and military, but ugly government." Despite having a huge number of political parties, Indians are
unsatisfied with options available to them for choosing a government. Just to make our discussion
easily readable we are classifying two sides as Panel I and Panel II.[Panel I] "Why
would you want to add fuel to fire!!!!!! please delete this post!!!" A person said
that on our discussion board on the shared pictures of filthy commonwealth village.Making into the
front-page and ticker of every newspaper and news channel in India, the games were defamed
and termed flop and criticized internationally before even they could take off. But American media
doesn't show all that negative things. Politicians won by this games bribing (or openly gifting)
and using the diplomatic clout. I voted for him to do that job. It's easy
to point out something have you done anything to make it right????" Was a reply
from the crowd.[[Panel II] "Given a chance I would! what have you done???" She retorted.Later
on the debate, we saw a perfect balance between "for" and "against" side. India has
been working since 2004 on this, and deadlines were missed due to corruption. Nobody can
ask anybody to shut their mouth. But I won't be surprised if it is true
because I acknowledge the problem of corruption.In 1947 English left us wiping and sucking everything
from this rich land with a gift of Pakistan. XIX Commonwealth games is the wealthiest
game and greenest as well. It was so badly managed and the cost overshot by
many multiples. But it was ignored, less scope for large scale corruption there. After all
this mess, All the major participating countries have given thumbs up to the village. Now
I will go ahead and fire him by not casting my vote. Unsuccessful games will
add to the long list of failed games earning a mark of failure forever.Sanskar Shrivastava
