Who is to blame? The ruling party? Suresh Kalmadi?

What happens when no one owns up?

EPIC FAIL.  >:(

The opposition has already begun the blame game. Where will it all lead to?

Welcome to Indian politics.

1. First get elected for making empty promises.

2. Spectacularly, fail to live up to promises.

3. Waste billions to cover up initial failures.

4. Have a massive catastrophe a few days before its time to deliver the end product.

5. Then tell the press Britain and the rest of the world are down playing India and being discriminatory.

6. Finally, make more empty promises to a crowd of people who in return will stage protests and 'rouse national sentiment' against western countries who rightfully label India and its government as a failure.

Go back to step 1 and start all over again....

85 laborers for 34 towers...

So where did all our money go? (it's a rhetorical question -_-)

The least Indians can hope now is the games actually happen :\
