Flash news: At least 50% of second-rung will compete!

It's a great relief that a large number of second-rung athletes will come to participate in our CWG. I guess there is no other positive way to look at things.

Kalmadi has done an amazing job to have spent close to USD 10 billion on the CWG to offer us this global PR disaster. When we ourselves elect such ethically bankrupt custodians of corruption to office, why should we raise such hue and cry? Every country deserves the government it brings to power.

One of the top five economies in the world in terms of PPP is also in a quite unenviable position of being absent even from the first hundred countries in terms of per capita PPP. We should have been communist in thought and capitalist in action. That's probably the only way the gulf between the government-supported rich and the state-disowned poor can be bridged. In China, you can get hanged for corruption. In India, you get hounded. End of story.
