Games mistakes
Friday, November 19, 2010
The government on Tuesday told Parliament that all complaints of "irregularities" in the run-up to hosting the just-concluded Commonwealth Games would be examined thoroughly and the guilty will not be spared. It also said that the Centre would carefully take on board the recommendations of all probe agencies before agreeing to host similar international sporting events.
"All irregularities will be examined and the guilty will not be spared," Union sports minister M S Gill said in the Lok Sabha while making a suo motu statement on the mega sporting event.
Against the backdrop of allegations of irregularities in preparations for the sports event, Gill said recommendations of the VK Shunglu Committee, CAG and CVC -- probing the irregularities -- would be taken on board before agreeing to host similar international sporting events in the country.
He said that CAG had already started auditing all Games related projects and the expenditure of the Organising Committee. "It plans to complete this exercise within three months and present a draft report by the first week of January, 2011," said the sports minister.
