Delhi Commonwealth Games could be new Munich massacre, says Oz Olympic legend

Those 60 or 90 whatever the figure was trucks full of explosive still missing in India can do wonders or to say can take you anyone by surprise.

So look out CWGs are indeed at risk of terrorist attack specially amid reports that many local insurgent groups are looking for opportunity to hit

Only 'local' comes in your mind...ehhh?????

fyi, India faces high risk of terrorist attack on almost every Independence Day, Republic Day, Diwali, Durga Puja, Eid, Baisakhi, Guru Purb, Raksha Bandhan, Holi, Christmas so on so on... still, people of India doesn't have any fear psychosis because We are capable of dealing with such threats.

we are able to manage that ... dnt wary

i think risk of terrorist attack in Pakistan in 100 times more than India and we have tight security their so again dnt wary about CWG
 
I suppose India is being lucky not being attacked much. What I see whenever there is match is that anyone could go in the stadium with anything at hand or jeb.

So, we could consider our self lucky then giving thanks to our police wala. Hopefully we can beda par this stuff and by luck nothing happen in this time otherwise it would be shame for me to appear against any foreigner..

Its better to just not hold the games, given that the knives are out...ie Aussies withdrawing and terror threats...cancel them on Oct 2nd..so that the infrastructure is in place.

The CWG OC is nothing different from the shoddy management of 26/11 by security agencies...now I doubt anything that has a GOI signature on it....I guess we need to go the US way and privatise the Govt and bring some efficiencies in...eg Nandan Nilekani - aka UID project.

Holy Crap !

This is getting insane, first there were demands by the Brits that the PM's car also be checked for explosives and now this....

I mean yeah there were major screw ups by Kalmadi and Co. but now this criticism is getting silly.


edit: just saw the date of the article, typical chauvinistic goras
 
Can we get a link for this ^^^

Sure

Check PM’s car too, says England

No one argues that there are security concerns surrounding the Commonwealth Games, considering the past incidents of terror attacks in the capital, but the English contingent has taken the security paranoia to a new, almost bizarre level.

On Saturday, it demanded that even Prime Minister Manmohan Singh’s car be checked while entering any Games venue, a demand that was flatly rejected by India.

“How will you feel if Prince Charles’ car is checked?” Indian officials retorted to the England Chef de Mission when he said he had seen VVIP cars enter Games venues without any security check.

“Check all cars, including that of the PM and Union ministers as they enter any stadium,”he demanded during a meeting with Indian officials, who shot down the demand, saying: “There is no question of the PM and cabinet ministers’ cars being checked.”

The England official made the demand at a meeting between representatives of participating countries and Delhi government officials, including those from the Delhi Lieutenant Governor’s office and the chief minister’s office, the Delhi Police, the DDA and the Organising Committee, sources said.

As part of the security drill, it has already been decided that all VIPs, barring the likes of the prime minister and Prince Charles, would leave their vehicles at certain designated points and travel by bus to the opening ceremony venue at Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium so that security cover could be more effectively provided.

Delhi police officials told the foreign delegates that only very few VIP vehicles would anyway get access to the venues as most of the VIPs and officials would travel in designated CWG vehicles only. Over a lakh security personnel are being deployed in the days to come all over the capital and they will be on duty till the games get over on October 14.

A special contingent of 175 sharpshooters separately will be tasked to shoot down any manned or unmanned aerial object that is seen to be flying without permission.

Saturday’s meeting saw rejection of another suggestion from some chefs de mission that no non-Games vehicle should be allowed to ply on the dedicated games lanes on busy Delhi streets for 17 hours a day during the Games period.

The demand was for banning non-Games vehicles from 6 am to 11 pm every day, but the government said such a move would inconvenience the public in a major way. Now, the lanes would be blocked for non-Games vehicles only when there is any movement of Games-related vehicles.

The chefs de mission were also assured that the hygiene levels at the Games village, which have come under scathing allround criticism after it was revealed that the apartments to be used by athletes and delegates were left extremely dirty, would be of “international”standards.
