Commonwealth Games projects to be completed by September: Jaipal Reddy

Urban Development Minister S. Jaipal Reddy Wednesday said that all projects related to the 2010 Commonwealth Games would be completed by September.

All projects will be completed by September and there is nothing to worry, Reddy said while replying to a query on the completion of Games-related projects on the sidelines of the inauguration of the new Yamuna Bank-Anand Vihar Metro line.

Commonwealth Games are scheduled to take place Oct 3-14 in the national capital. As many as 8,000 athletes, officials from 71 countries and nearly 100,000 visitors are expected to throng Delhi during the event.

Authorities here have been repeatedly criticised for delays in Games related projects.
