Kalmadi & Co. needs lesson in basics<\/h2>\n

\"\u0907\u0932\u0938\u094d\u091f\u094d\u0930\u0947\u0936\u0928

\u0907\u0932\u0938\u094d\u091f\u094d\u0930\u0947\u0936\u0928 : \u0930\u094b\u0939\u093f\u0924 \u0924\u094d\u092f\u093e\u0917\u0940<\/p><\/div>In a major gaffe from which Suresh Kalmadi & Co. can never pull itself through, it has now been discovered that the very concept of the Commonwealth Games\u2019 mascot is faulty, imperfect and has been compromised. CWG organising committee chairman Suresh Kalmadi had announced the mascot for the 2010 Delhi games on March 9, 2006, unveiling \u2018Shera \u2013 The Friendly Tiger\u2019 as the lucky charm of the mega event.<\/p>\n

A click at the Commonwealth Games website and perusal of untold documents, including the guide for both national and international media, reveal that over and over again it has been mentioned that \u201cthe name \u2018Shera\u2019 has been derived from the Hindi word \u2018sher\u2019 \u2013 meaning tiger\u201d. This means the multi-crore organizers do not know that the Hindi word \u2018sher\u2019 does not mean \u2018tiger\u2019. As a matter of fact, the word \u2018sher\u2019 means \u2018lion\u2019. And even a child knows the difference between a tiger and a lion.<\/p>\n

So what was Kalmadi & Co. up to? Did it treat the XIX CWG Delhi mascot with the seriousness it deserved? Or did it just advance with an apathetic formality? It is also surprising that this blunder has been allowed to continue for four long years since the mascot was first unveiled in 2006. Is this confusion over the lucky charm taking away the sheen off the impending events?<\/p>\n

Mascots for the Commonwealth Games were first introduced in 1978 and they are now an integral part of the promotion and commercial success of the Commonwealth Games. But this Tiger-Lion mystification proves that Kalmadi & Co. not only played with the Indian taxpayers\u2019 money but it has also been marauding the promotion and commercial success of the games.<\/p>\n

From leaking venue roofs to inflated orders of everything that is associated with the games, rows over CWG events have prompted soul-searching across the Indian nation and piled pressure on the beleaguered ruling Congress party, inviting an almost daily dose of criticism even to the extent of CWG\u2019s abbreviation being explained as \u2018Congress Wealth Generator\u2019.<\/p>\n

Commonwealth Games Federation chief Mike Fennell was in India until two days ago when he said allegations of corruption against the organizers of the Delhi Games were of great concern and need to be thoroughly investigated by Indian authorities.<\/p>\n

India\u2019s main opposition Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP) has also started describing Kalmadi as the new \u2018Shera\u2019. \u201cWho is the Commonwealth Games mascot? Suresh Kalmadi or Shera?\u201d asked BJP general secretary Vijay Goel at a function in the capital recently, quipping: \u201cI think it is the former!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cKalmadi has become the new mascot of the Commonwealth Games, replacing Shera. Kalmadi is everywhere and the real mascot is nowhere to be seen. Poor Shera is buried under Kalmadi\u2019s weight,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
