Disadvantages A poor country like us should better invest inresolving its huge bunch of problems.

The income generated from these events willbe less than, what would be put into these

events and would be temporary too. No planning of what will be done with thehospitality industry, after the gamescompletes.

Preparations haven't finished yet andeveryone is afraid, if it would defame India,

just because of pathetic bureaucracy in ourcountry
