CWG - A tale untold, by the media, as it unfolds...

"The sh*t has hit the fan, now nothing can be done". I heard this for India's preparation for CWG. I feel otherwise - I have a strong feeling that India will not only do good but great because for a few important reasons that makes India different from other hosts - I will stress on only one reason here, strong enough to make all others tiny and irrelevant. Let me start with what all happened. In a chronological order, media showed some stats that CWG work is going behind schedule. India's youth laughed it away. Then they offered incomplete site pictures which of course were going to infuse negativity around and they did, media got its TRP (Mind you, the pics were old, go and see the site today. I bet you would like to sh*t on that commode instead of offering it to a fan). In this negative chaos created, the average India started feeling that Indian Govt is not doing its job right. They started aggravating the situation with the help of FB and Twitter. The Indian sh*t thinkers (these are the ones who think while sh*tting such as Chetan Bhagat) wrote to India public suggesting some hard-line measures such as boycotting the games totally. After the sh*t hit fan, Kalmadi was caught with handing over of contracts unethically and it came as the best icing on the cake for media and boo-booers of India. Then came snakes, broken beds and ceilings which aggravated the situation more, but while this was happening a large number of people, just like us, had faith in themselves and were preparing for the games. I am not talking about the likes of Sania Nehwal, Bindra or others, but mainly about the common man and workers who have got their bread and butter due to games and will get in future too. I am talking about the budding sport stars who wanted a good facility to get trained but didn't have any till yet. I am talking about the small shop owner who were looking forward to getting some good customers due to the games and were preparing for it since long. Also the ones who used Delhi's infrastructure daily and thought if the games would have happened a few years back, I would have got all this then. THAT person for me has something positive in his heart even today, after such as mess created by media. And THAT person within me and you will make the games a grand success just like the one Rikshaw-wala who had the courage to throw a stone on the terrorists. It is the positive energy in a million hearts that will make the games a success which cannot be besmirched with tiny pieces of sh*t that hit the fan a long time ago. Long live THAT person with-in us...I can see that positive beaming today with a great confidence as the days unfold...
