Commenwealth Games????????????????


                                    

The total budget estimated for the hosting of 19th commonwealth games US$ 1.6 billion and this amount excludes non sports related infrastructure development in the city like airports, roads and other structures. This makes this commonwealth Games as the most expensive commonwealth games ever.

                          


Nearly every road is dug up. Giant cranes and hazy dust cloud the skyline.India's capital is in the midst of breathless construction overdrive in the run-up to an international sporting event.
