| Congress Games sabotages Commonwealth Games - Prathiba Concerns are growing over the viability of the Commonwealth Games after a bridge collapsed near the main stadium in Dehli and the Scottish team complained that their accommodation was "unsafe and unfit for human habitation". Team Scotland said they were moved to a different building after complaining to the Games organising committee, but said even the new apartments required "serious cleaning and maintenance" to bring them up to standard. Scotland are still planning to take part in the Games but have warned they "will not compromise on issues of health, safety and security". Shortly after their statement was released, a bridge situated near the Jawaharlal Nehru stadium collapsed, with reports of several injuries. According to officials the structure gave way as labourers applied a concrete layer. Team Scotland said: "The athletes' village is not only at the heart of any Commonwealth Games, but is fundamental to the staging of the event. The specification for the village set by Delhi 2010 promised to be of the highest standard, surpassing anything that had gone before. "However on arrival in Delhi on Thursday last week, Team Scotland officials found that building works had fallen seriously behind schedule and that its allocated accommodation blocks were far from finished and in their view, unsafe and unfit for human habitation. "After representation to the organising committee, Scotland was reallocated finished accommodation, but which still required serious cleaning and maintenance to bring it up to the necessary Games-ready standards. "This has now been largely addressed by the Scotland team management, cleaning the seven-story tower block from top to bottom themselves with assistance from Delhi Games volunteers. |
