Commonwealth games are closing in less than a year but where is the sporting spirit. We have had bridges collapsing , roads diverted, inspections of stadiums, Delhi metro going at frenetic pace but what about sports. Except for some tears flowing down like the Yamuna river down poor PT Usha's face i have not seen athletics competitions nor National records being broken. Statements and counter statements from politicians and babus and a media going beserk about missed deadlines.
Same age old stories of sportpersons being ill-treated after retirement and working as labourers and waiters!!! Are we going to have politicians and babus and security men participating and winning medals or can we see some sporting spirit in our cities. Can anyone tell me when are the national records or qualifying marks for various sporting events. Have our sportsmen started breaking records????Whats going on. Delhi is currently showing no signs of getting ready for a major sporting event. It looks like its getting ready for war!!!!!
