Two Delhi Commonwealth Games officials arrested
Topic: commonwealth games, bbc news
15 November 2010 Last updated at 09:18 ET  The 2010 Games were hit by claims of shoddy construction and dubious payments to contractors India's top investigating agency has arrested two 2010 Delhi Commonwealth Games officials for alleged financial irregularities. TS Darbari and Sanjay Mohindroo are accused of forgery and cheating over the awarding of Games contracts. The men were suspended from their posts in August. They deny any wrongdoing. The allegations come just a day after Indian Telecoms Minister A Raja was forced to step down over claims he undersold mobile phone licenses. Mr Raja denies the charges. The high-profile corruption cases are an embarrassment for the Indian government, says the BBC's Sanjoy Majumder in Delhi. First arrests Mr Darbari and Mr Mohindroo were arrested after raids on their offices and homes, said Harsh Bhal, a spokesman for India's Central Bureau of Investigation. They are alleged to have forged documents as part of a scam to award Games contracts to companies at inflated prices. These are the first arrests after a high-level investigation was ordered into corruption charges surrounding the Commonwealth Games. In August, the Games' treasurer, Anil Khanna, quit after claims an Australian firm won the contract to lay tennis courts for the Games because his son headed its Indian arm. All India Tennis Association chief Khanna denied any wrongdoing. More on This Story The BBC is not responsible for the content of external Internet sites

Commonwealth Games 2010: Delhi Commonwealth Games begin
Topic: commonwealth games, bbc news
2010 COMMONWEALTH GAMES
Venue: Delhi, India Dates: 3-14 October 2010 Coverage:Comprehensive live coverage across BBC TV, radio, online, BBC Red Button, mobile and BBC iPlayer services. Full coverage details here. Full schedule of events here.  The ceremony attempted to capture the history and culture of India
The 2010 Commonwealth Games have begun with a spectacular opening ceremony in Delhi's Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium. Athletes from the 71 competing nations joined in a parade that began with 2006 hosts Australia and ended with India. Prince Charles and Indian president Pratibha Patel announced the Games open, but organising committee chair Suresh Kalmadi was jeered by the crowd. The build-up to the Games had been blighted by concerns that venues and accommodation may not be completed. However, the glittering opening ceremony, which charted both the heritage and present-day experience of India and featured about 9,000 performers went smoothly. In his speech, Kalmadi stated that India was ready to host the Games despite much-publicised problems in the build-up.  | 606: DEBATE | "There have been delays and many challenges but we have managed to rise above them all," he said. "Despite the adverse publicity on health, safety, rain and security, all the Commonwealth associations have stood by India as we have put together the biggest Games in Commonwealth history. "India is ready, ready to host the Commonwealth Games." Kalmadi emphasised the legacy that will be left by the Games. It has been estimated that as much as $6bn (£3.8bn) has been spent - 60 times the original estimate when the Games were awarded in 2003 - on infrastructure such as a new airport and metro system. Prince Charles described the staging of the 19th edition of the Games in India as "particularly fitting" as he spoke on behalf of the Queen. His message to the crowd arrived as the Queen's baton completed a 112,000-mile relay that began almost a year ago at Buckingham Palace. There had been reports in the Indian media, denied by British diplomats, that there had been disagreement over whether the prince or President Patel would officially open the Games. | TOM FORDYCE'S BLOG | In the event Prince Charles declared the Games open, before President Patel finished her speech by saying "let the Games begin" to the accompaniment of fireworks. A vibrant performance of Jiyo, Utho, Bado, Jeeto, the musical finale from the film Slumdog Millionaire, by Bollywood superstar AR Rahman marked the end of the ceremony. The sporting action gets under way with the heats of the women's 200m freestyle swimming at 0830 local time on Monday. Over the course of the following 11 days, 4,300 athletes will compete in 17 sports across 12 venues. The Games, the first to be staged in India, have been dogged by problems with the athletes' village being called "inhospitable" just last week. However, Games officials have worked round the clock to ensure competitions start as scheduled. Bookmark with:
