Shiv Sena supremo Bal Thackeray on Thursday lashed out at under-fire chief of the Commonwealth Games Organising Committee,

Suresh Kalmadi, holding him responsible for mismanagement in the organisation of the upcoming mega event.

Talking to reporters, Thackeray said that Kalmadi is incapable of managing such a large scale event and had failed to live up to expectations.

“Kalmadi has jeopardized the games,” he said.

So, is Kalmadi  the real culprit ??

I believe that Mr. Kalmadi is responsible for this mess. He was the chairman of the CWG committee & all the mess that has happen was under his administration. So, I believe he is the main culprit.

Nope!

He might be one of the responsible people, who now, in this situation being on the interface, can be  targeted by everyone  for the failure of common wealth games. But he alone cannot be the real culprit. The biggest problem, in any government ventures that take place in India, is the terrible structure upon which those ventures are planned. The terrible structure includes the immense possibilities of corruption ( then whether it is mafiaism in the transport, traffic, roads, MCD... just endless, not to mention how much money has already been eaten up in the name of CWG ) . They always want to make a structure without cleaning up the older and known  problems. The people employed in the government bodies don't want to work. They know nobody can remove them, no matter they work or not. Additionally casteism and vote bank groups include such problems. All this was started by the government so as grab the chair. But now it has become such a virus, that it badly plagues the whole system from head to toe.

The disease period in New Delhi ( Mid- August to November-end) is not new to Delhi. But as it is just related to deaths of common people, nothing ever has been done in this respect.  It is horrible to see, how every 3rd house in new Delhi has one victim of dengue, malaria, eye-flu or some viral disease. A number of people have been victims of uncontrolled killer buses and people violating traffic rules openly and wildly ( knowing the loop holes of escape ). The public transports, DTC, blueline, rikshaws have their own self defined way to operate. There has been no successful complaint system even if you get robbed in the mid of your way. There customer care never works. It's endless, if you see Delhi, i wonder, how come it's called as capital of India. There are hundreds of small towns in India which are much better in administration than Delhi.  With all these known problems, now Delhi govt. wants things to work good atleast for common wealth  games. But the truth is that law and order is  process that develops through years and efforts. It's not a miracle that happens suddenly !

why we don't think on solutions to stop such issue...... I think we have to talk about the concrete solutions to stop such mess instead of bleming who is responsible 4 that? Coz though we all know who is responsible 4 CWG corruption we are helpless to do something against them as our hands are too short comparative to them...

As a Chairman of OC(CWG), he is answerable. It is because of his inability to organize and control the event has resulted in this mess and country is getting a bad name.

As head of organising committee complete responsibility is his, they had ample time but they were not in hurry saying everything is under control , now at last minute he is saying "infrastructure was not given in time ", why all this was not preplanned , such a prstigious event and we made mockery of it . We wih second largest population couldnot do one event on time, that also after spending crores, not that money was a constraint but the will to excel was not there. He and his team should be tried and made to pay till the last penny they have. Its not only him the person who was to check his preparation should be taken to task also ..no one responsible in the committee and over it should be let off..

Mr. Kalmadi, as Chairman of OC (CWG, 2010), can't escape the main responsibility as well as the related accountability for the "huge mess" + "loss of face - for the country as a whole". If one person is to be singled out, it has to be him only.

Kalmadi is not onle responsibile. Delhi Govt, Urban development ministiry, Sports ministiry & Indian Govt all are responsibile for mess of games. We have taken a sleep from 2003 & now we are trying to host games. India is not capable for this type of events. (Because of corruption & delay, not by our capacity)

this is not a school event, but a national event where you blame an individual for the mess...the govt. need to own up the responsibility of retaining ppl like Matto who in the eyes of Hockey India Federation is a defunct entity, letting Suresh Kalmadi change the doc that would put him the OC Chairman, turn a blind eye to the slow progress made by the OC until the last minute...there are just so many blunders made by the govt...including the plan to schedule the CWG during the monsoon season...i mean can you blame kalmadi only for this entire fiasco..NO except that you can blame him on the administrative front...but on the planning front, the team organization, et al, you have nobody else but the govt. to blame...this is a team effort and making some one else the scapegoat will not solve the problem...if it is a failure, the entire team gets pulled up and vice-versa...just as in a team sport...getting rid of the rot and building up a strong team of individuals with commendable administrative background is what the govt. should have done....putting a cap on the total expenditure is what the govt should have done...monitoring the progress of the project rt. from the beginning is what the govt. should have done...taking care of its own athlete by way of building proper infrastructure rather than building it for CWG with poor quality materials is what the govt. should have done...watching kalmadi play the lead role in the entire corruption is what the govt. should NOT have done...AND WHAT NOT...where do i stop...and now tell me whom do you blame??

I'm in disagreement that Kalmadi is the only culprit here. He is just a puppet whose strings are controlled somewhere in the ministry level. So, better to cut the tree itself rather than cutting the branches...
