Carry on the fantastic work!
I mean seriously, aren't these Games in enough trouble without Indian citizens using it as an opportunity for satire and humiliation of the organizing committee, the government and people in general????
Indians bickering and quarreling about an event (which they bid for and celebrated like hell when they won the bid) of international prominence such as The Commonwealth Games will be a great attraction for the foreigners visiting the country for the first time - awesome first impression it'll give them, too.....
After having said that, I'll also have to say that I'm sorry I'll have to disagree with you on this one. Unlike you, I feel quite unsympathetic towards certain people in the CWG organising committee.It is not the reportage of corruption that shames a nation , it's the act of corruption itself. Delhi itself is a satire.. all we're doing is recording it..
I totally respect your concern for the country's image and you are indeed entitled to any opinion you hold.But seriously - the jokes doing the rounds are the least of the worries for the games .. oh wait ! was that another foot overbridge falling?
I give up, totally exhausted... CWG India on google search gives us the word 'disaster', 'humiliation', 'corrupt' etc... I'm sick and tired... They could have built the Games Village anywhere with the money they spent on these Games... It had to be in Delhi, didn't it?? That is the primary reason for this failure, in my opinion...
I Care Not What Happens To these games any longer - you will not hear me speak in defence of CWG any longer... I can neither reason with you nor the media nor any of the critics...
Whole country going to pay because of few Bas****s. ( Pardon me.)
If you want a preview of my novel, scream.

P.S: By scream I meant email me.
