New Delhi : With barely two weeks to go for the Commonwealth Games, Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit Monday reviewed the preparations and said the city was “now absolutely ready” and was aiming for “perfection” in various infrastructure and services.
Dikshit asked all the agencies involved in the Games-related project to constitute special teams to monitor the situation.
“As the city is now absolutely ready to host an international sports event, it is the need of the hour to keep a close eye on newly-developed infrastructure, greenery, street lights, street-scaping, high mast lights and other vital civic services to ensure constant perfection,” the chief minister told reporters after the meeting.
Some 7,000 participants and officials from 71 countries and territories are expected to attend the Oct 3-14 Commonwealth Games, India’s biggest sporting event after the 1982 Asian Games.
