You are absolutely rigth that in the end everything will be done well. and it will be a world class event.

Though we could have done better and money spent better. Presently roads are full of pot holes, plant saplings even though quite matured plants were planted need a lot of tending and a miracle to fully bloom.

Wish civil bureacracy was as efficient then folks in army and had planned better. Rains is no excuse as defeat in war can have no excuses. Monsoons come every year.

Regards.

Brig sapra

.good morning…
u have some truth there…i have no idea weather we have bitten more than what we can chew this time….trust me it is a diffrent ball game this time over….i have the unenviable experience of having been part of being in ground zero for organising the military world games…..an olympic games for the militaries the world over…..the experience was harroing however we had clear directions and with military danda behind us things happened amazingly….world class facilities which we cld never dream of ….drills worked as well oiled rifles and everything a resounding sucess….not to miss the undeserving get a number of medals….but the fact of the matter is that all that happened because of solid danda…..and no corruption….i apppreciate the optimism that you hold but this time around we need more than the stupid song sung by that overrated singer a r rehman for a painful 5 crores….yeh to haal hai sarkaar ka. i suggest you take the first flight out of india for blanking yourself from this national shame….regards
