ALL IS NOT SAME…

New Delhi: No doubt, the Common Wealth Games (CWG) has brought a dramatic change in shaping and placing Delhi in to much more of international standard. This gives imaginative and creative achievements, especially to the Indians as well as the athletes of the 71 participant Common Wealth Nations of the World. The game does not only bring cheers and happiness to the minds of the athletes but also to the people alike who are watching and witnessing this gala event. These days India is dazzling and basking its success as the world media has given a thumbs up to the hosting nation. All were keenly waiting for the much talked inaugural ceremony. India took on wonderfully showcasing its great heritage and rich culture keeping shut the mouth of the critiques.

Now the people are eager to watch for their enjoyment. Athletes are very much enthusiastic to take active and strong participation in different games to fulfill their dreams; at the same time bringing glory and happiness to their own country by bagging medals in their respective competitive events. Keeping aside, the entire activities, public move to watch and witness games just to enjoy and be the part of the historic event. But still on the other hand there are a large number of people who are least worried about this gala happening, for which all is not same.

Life is not the bed of roses for every body, hence the approach and attitude towards life varies from person to person. Something unusual comment we received from a Gupchup seller (pani puri wala) from Kaushambi near Aanand Vihar. For him, “CWG is only a momentary action and after October 14, 2010, all in Delhi will be the same again as it was before, so why to bother and spend all the time on it, which is not even beneficial for like us people”. This was a straight forward thought of a   poor man who has least interest on CWG. He does not bother about what is going on in and around Delhi. The prime concern to him is his family and for this he goes ahead with his petty business to support his family. He comes all the way from Mandi house, to the Kaushambi Park, by 4pm everyday and sells his items till 10 pm., and the life goes on and on. For him life is a challenge, not the Games!
