The next day Prime Minister set up a committee to enquire into the issues of the CWG and the report is to be submitted within three months. I am sure the murky affairs of corrupt people will be brought to light and the guilty will be punished
I could not go to Delhi to see the Common Wealth Games. The next best thing I did was to sit in front of my TV and watch the games. The advantage of watching games in the TV is that one can see different disciplines sitting in the comfort one’s house besides one can get close up views. Of course I could not resist the temptation of taking some photos and post them here for those who didn’t see the games. These are only some photos of the closing ceremony.
Woww!!!! Beautiful Pictures.
ReplyDeleteI saw the closing ceremony, Joseph. I thought the Games were a great success... and didn't India do well? Well done!
ReplyDeleteHello Jospeh, I watched the Common Wealth Games every day and thought India put on an excellent show. You just beat England in the Gold Medals well done India,
ReplyDeleteLoved the pics they are good. Excellent post,
Yvonne.
nice. not bad at all for taking them off the tv...nicely done hosting...
ReplyDeleteLooks like fun, Joseph! I'm glad that you were able to watch and enjoy the games! Have you seen the movie "Invictus?" Sports were used in that true story to help unite a country. There is a time and a purpose for everything under Heaven, isn't there? I'm looking forward to catching up on some of your old blog posts my dear friend from across the globe! Oh how I've missed this!! :)
ReplyDeleteHi Joseph,
ReplyDeleteWhat remarkable pics.
Mr Joseph, the closing was nice, bu t I was disapointed with the music at the end- seemed rather chaotic. I liked the martial arts display and the rangoli and th e lazer show.
ReplyDeleteLets see what happens when they open the can of worms- the guilty shoud be punished.
The photos are very nice. I posted some video clipings.
Glad that India made it despite the hitches and initial negative comments. Do hope the culprits will be dealt with. I've just come home from The Silk Road of China.
ReplyDeleteI did watch the CW games and never thought of capturing the clips in my camera. Well, your pictures have come out beautiful. Incidentally in my Hindi blog there is a photo of a Bishnoi women breast feeding a baby Chinkara along with her own daughter. You may like it. http://mallar.wordpress.com
ReplyDeleteYeah, the games went well. The Indian sports team did extremely well. And the closing ceremony was a grand finale!
ReplyDeleteThose pics you've taken off the TV have come out quite decent :)
Hi Joseph,
ReplyDeleteI didn't get to see the closing ceremony although I did manage to watch a few sports in between completing my thesis. Thanks for sharing.
Have a good day! :-)
Hey Joseph! Great pictures. Saw your comment on Yvonne's blog - if a publisher can say yes to my book, don't give up hope for yours!

Hi Joseph! It's always a hard choice: live you have a wonderful experience... at home you see everything from every different angle and all the times you need to... ;)
ReplyDeleteSorry for the absence: out one week, busy on return and then caught by the flu... ;)

The closing ceremony was a delightful experience. It was done beautifully. What made it more sweet is to see the bright faces so many India players who won so many medals.
