No, he did not try to commit suicide. He was only pulling down the false ceiling to remove the ill-gotten money he had stashed away there. Seeing that a part of the ceiling in the weight lifting venue collapsed, he was afraid that it collapses in the venues where he had stashed away the ill-gotten wealth, it will virtually rain money on the athletes and all the corrupt officials (almost 99.9% of them are corrupt) will be exposed (as if they are not already exposed!!!).
I am not going to harp on about how messed up the Commonwealth Games are. Enough has been written. The CWG 2010 is, by far, the biggest and most blatant, exercise in corruption in independent India's history.
In the middle of all this, there will be propaganda campaigns to 'save India's image' and get the Games done somehow. People will be expected to support the event - after all, the pride of India is at stake. The great Indian youth will be called upon to fill stadiums and add energy to the event.
All Indians have been robbed at the same time. Add to that the fact that the government is desperate to save face. Now is when we can get them. And the way to do it is simply what the father of our nation pioneered in his time - NON CO-OPERATION. Yes, and I've deliberated long before saying this - do not watch these Games. Do not go to the venues. Do not watch them on TV. You cannot become a cheerleader to an exercise in cheating.
Just as Gandhiji figured, the oppressor can oppress us; it cannot make us cooperate. Brand ambassadors lending their names to these Games should think twice before lending their image to cover up corruption.
The Indian people have been exploited enough, but to expect us to smile through it is a bit much. If they can walk out of Parliament, we can walk out of stadiums !
If any great leader of BIHAR would have been involved in CWGames, all of BIHAR would have been made a laughing stock along with their great and precious leaders.......... Thank God! No BIHAR Leaders are involved.....
The ground reality is that, no great development work (in India) sees the day without involvement/ active participation of UP, BIHAR Engineers, Contractors and Workers
The whole CWG saga has one moral ----- corruption (at all levels) is acceptable in INDIA (and in most of the cases, the alleged mastermind, king pins of famous scandals etc. are never caught)!
