In Focus-Parley | Should the Commonwealth Games be scrapped?

from In Focus by The Hindu · host The Hindu

The recently concluded Commonwealth Games were unlike the usual multidisciplinary sporting extravaganzas that we are used to seeing. A late replacement to Victoria as host, the Glasgow Games were more akin to an abridged version with fewer events and fewer participants. India finished fourth on the medal table, a commendable performance given that most of the sports that over the years have formed the bulk of our medal haul had been removed. But questions of uncertainty have been whirling around the Games for a long time and the Glasgow edition has again reignited the same. Are the Commonwealth Games dying? We discuss. Tune in! Guests: Anju Bobby George and Dr. Heena Sidhu Host: Uthra Ganesan Producer: Jude Weston Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
