Army asked to work for free for CWG
After busting the budget several times over, the Commonwealth Games are apparently still short of money. NDTV has accessed a letter written by Urban Development Minister Jaipal Reddy to Defence Minister AK Antony stating that the Army should not expect the Organizing Committee (OC) for the Games to pay allowances for the officers and jawan who are on duty for the Games. This means, the Army has to shell out 11 crores for assisting the government with the Games.
