 SCAMS AND SCANDAL
• Total scam of ₹70,000 crores.
• Vigilance-related irregularities and Over-Invoicing
• Main accused IOA Chairman and organising committee Mr. Suresh Kalmadi.
All the accused, including Kalmadi, were charged of criminal conspiracy, cheating, forgery
for purpose of cheating and forgery for purpose of cheating and were also charged under
sections of the Prevention of Corruption Act.
CBI Charge sheet quoted “Kalmadi is the main accused as he was the person with all
supreme powers. He had the supreme over riding powers in the Organising Committee of
the CWG, 2010,”
At the start it was not clear whether the Organising Committee would be covered under the
national Right to Information (RTI) Act, as it did not come under the purview of the
definition of ‘state’. Such grey areas can create a sense of immunity from rules, procedures
and accountability.
