"WE ARE THERE FOR YOU"-CWG OC AND NSG

The security officials of CWG received a strongly worded warning from Australia after the capital witnessed shooting incident outside Jama Masjid on 19th Sept.The updated travel bulletin from Australia's foreign department said,"There is a high risk of terrorist attack in New Delhi."But, Australia a day before the Jama Masjid attack said that it would not withdraw its athlete from the event.
Expressing his concern and views,CWG federation chief  Mike Fennel said that the Delhi game security was a concern for many countries and their apprehensions must be addressed. 


Kalmadi while addressing the media said,"I have not got a single call from any Commonwealth country expressing apprehensions about security (of the athletes after yesterday's firing). This (firing) was not a Games related incident. It happened in Jama Masjid and the police are looking into it. It's not a major incident."


Indian government did a commendable job by making a special tight security arrangement for the Games and  deploying of personnel from the elite commando force of the country,National Security Guard(NSG) to ensure safety of the athletes.71 nations have expressed their happiness on the efforts of Indian government to ensure safety of every single person involved in CWG.
Even though the security measures have been taken by OC of CWG ,they should not become care-free regarding the highly important issue of safety and security of the guests.People should help Delhi police by being alert and vigilant against any suspicious,unidentified object.
