New Delhi:
The government Friday named a high-level committee headed by
former Comptroller and Auditor General V.K. Shunglu to examine all
matters related to the conduct of the 2010 Commonwealth Games,
official sources said.
The committee will present its report to Prime Minister Manmohan
Singh within three months, the sources added.
They said that the committee will look into all matters relating
to the organisation and conduct of the Oct 3-14 Commonwealth Games
"to draw lessons from it".
The terms of reference of the committee will be announced soon,
the sources added.
The Congress party had earlier Friday said that government
agencies would look into allegations of misappropriation of funds
in preparations for the Games.
