With the Commonwealth Games over and demands for probe for mounting, Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh had on October 15 appointed a high-level committee headed by former Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) VK Shunglu to look into allegations of corruption related to the mega sporting event.
The committee will submit its report to the Prime Minister within three months. The Prime Minister’s office has promised that those who ’shamed the country’ through corrupt practices will be punished.
Meanwhile, different agencies, including the Enforcement Directorate have been asked to uncover a multitude of financial misdeeds that range from payments being made to companies that don’t exist, to contracts that allowed those hired for the Games to escape with severely over-priced equipment and services.
