Former Commonwealth Games Organising Committee Chief Suresh Kalmadi was produced in a special CBI Court in Delhi a shortwhile ago. CBI is likely to ask for his custody. The investigating agency arrested Kalmadi yesterday for allegedly awarding a purchase contract for the games to a Swiss company at an inflated rate of 141 crore rupees for timing equipments. CBI also arrested two other senior officials of CWG Organising Committee yesterday for involvement in the scam. They are Surjeet Lal and A S V Prasad. They have been taken into custody.
Union Sports Minister Ajay Maken has said the Indian Olympic Association IOA will be asked to elect its new Chairman. Talking to reporters on the sidelines of a function he said, if the IOA fails to act, his Ministry will seek the advice of the Attorney General in this regard and will intervene accordingly. The BJP President Nitin Gadkari said that the investigating agency should take action against all those who are involved in the Commonwealth Games scam. He described Kalmadi's arrest a belated action and alleged that it is a tip of the iceberg. CPIM has welcomed the arrest of Kalmadi.
