Commonwealth Games: Com(e) on wealth!

DELHI IS committed to showcase ‘India Shining’ at the event of Commonwealth Games to be organised this year in New Delhi. Preparations are in full swing. Roads are being given completely a new shape. Slums are being abolished and replaced with malls or malls-like glittering buildings. Games venues are being prepared on the lines of Beijing Olympic venues. Crores of rupees are being spent to organise a less than a week event. Government message is clear- foreigners, while in Delhi, see ‘India is shining’.

For many governments there has always been easy way to do away with problems by making up adjustments. Now, government is wary of casting image of India before the world as a modern, developed and poverty-free country. For this government has decided to cover up loopholes, flaws and shortcomings. The poor are being denied a space in the surrounding area, which will be the spotlight places for foreigners. Clearly, if you don’t see poverty around, you will think it does not exist. The government has been quite successful in executing the policy. If we visit Delhi Airport, Gurgaon Expressway, Noida, Delhi Metro, Conought Place, Games Village, etc there has been a complete makeshift or is in the final phase of make-believe frame. But when we take a route of Outer Ring Road side area, we come across the ‘India shining’ truth, where slums, poverty and bad shape of roads are rampant.

The money box has been opened for creating infrastructure and development according to comports and convenience for millionaires. Commonwealth designed Delhi will be true place suited well for them as it will be money-made heavens and here poor can not adjust themselves in any circumstances. Actually, in the name of CWG, government is presenting an excuse to switch spending on an infrastructure for luxury which is essential for a class that has as much money as it can't be finished easily.
