A hat trick for India - Winning

And … India won again! A hat trick !

The Ayodhya verdict first a victory for the nation as a people, for the calm and mature manner that the masses and the politicians took the decision of the courts.

A fantastic victory on the cricket pitch when down and out India fought like seasoned gladiators against the might of the Australians.

The CommonWealth Games amidst apprehensions of all the terrible stories that kept coming out, a spectacular show applauded by one and all through the entire world. to let the world know that we can do it when we want to.



I wonder if ever India has won so many medals, but pray that let the spree continue..


Skies over the national capital lit with multi-colour laser beams and fireworks as part of 160-minute closing ceremony at the Jawaharlal Nehru stadium filled to capacity of 60,000 cheering sports lovers on 14th October 2010.

Reading out the closure statement, the Prince said, "In the name of the Commonwealth Games Federation, I proclaim the XIX Commonwealth Games Delhi 2010 closed.

"In accordance with tradition I call upon the sportsmen and sportswomen of the Commonwealth to assemble in four years time in Glasgow, Scotland, there to celebrate the XX Commonwealth Games."

No longer that oft repeated tale of how we ‘went down fighting’, but instead how ‘we fought back to win from the brink of defeat’. BUCK UP INDIA !!!
