Snatching the COMMON WEALTH...

Some times i wonder how easily the people of india and specially the people living in the capital city of India i.e delhi can be fooled by a package of politicians ruling in and from delhi. Shiela dixhit, the chief minister of delhi, keeps on saying that the delhiats dont have to worry about the price hikes in almost everything, ok lets count, the milk, groceries, vegetables, petrol, electricity bills, water bills, road tax, the bus and metro fare, ummm is there anything lift now?????
if these are not the daily necessities then why shoudnt we worry, an average delhiate is now struggling to survive here and apart from the above said expences there are several more for us to cover, the medicines, rentals, emi's, school fees, and lots more. but madam dixhit dosent understand all this simply because she has the government house to live, the electricty, phone and water bills are paid by the government, a chauffer driven car, and everything else she needs from the above said necessities being provided as a compliment of being the chief minister so how can she understand the problems of surviving in delhi. here i am talking about the common man or the middle class or lower middle class people but the poor is not even countable as they have to kill themselves thousands time to live a day in delhi.
now what should be understandable is that there isnt any problem in delhi but the problem of common wealth games which she took now as a matter of pride for her and her government and for its success she can go any ways and to raise the funds needed all this "ramleela" is happening around, the central government has already paid more then enough required for the games but nothing is working out for the government as nothing was planned and everything was messed up to make it a success which is still questionable. by imposing all these price wars she wants to get the creamy layer to survive in delhi and the poor may have the choice to leave it of their own choice and she may not be blamed for their evacuation from delhi, she is more then raj thackray as we can see what he does and say but what she is doing is more poisones then anything else.
now all of you tell me that is it worth spending billions, which is still not accountable, for such games happening for just thirteen days and for few thousand guests visiting those days and to portray delhi as a world class city with the citizens without water, electricty and no food to eat?the citizens living without the basic emenities living in the world class city, millions of people struggling to survive for their livelyhood. a world class city where the authorities left open the ditches to get the small children killed in them and on the other hand making some high rise building to show the skyline of delhi.
friends why shouldnt we show the real delhi to the visiting guests and ask them is it fair to pay such a cost of living for their recreations. to host the common wealth games is a matter of pride but at what cost? i know whatever i am writing here is not going to change whatever is going around but still let the government know that we all are not fools who dont understand what is going around us and how much worse it can be. but to survive we have to struggle and keep struggling with the dirty politics around us which unfortunately is part of us only.........
