It happens only in India....

Govinda danced to one catchy dance number a few years back titled "It happens only in India". There are so many things, apart from what he thought happens, that actually happens only in India. One such grand event is playing out presently.

The common wealth games has turned into a HUGE scam with the media tearing up the behind of Suresh Kalmadi and company. Its wonderful to see the constant attention to this by the media. I've been following Times Now and absolutely love the wonderful journalism of Arnab Goswami http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=42194368307#!/group.php?gid=42194368307&v=info

Its such a shame that the government that came into power on the platform of the "aam aadmi" isn't resorting to any drastic step in investigating the scam and making heads roll. 

The kind of money being spent in is mind boggling, running into thousands of crores. Can India afford to spend such sums on an event which has absolutely no significance. Why host such an event when we are totally not ready to and need to go on a spending spree in order to be a host ? The motives now seem to becoming clear. Its obviously nothing got to do with the supposed pride to being a host of such an irrelevant sporting event and more to do with making "common wealth" into "personal wealth" !!
