Found Condoms in CWG Village - Rubbery problem
The Commonwealth Games Village is confronting a civic problem again. It is not the dirty loos or spit-stained bathrooms, but choked drains, which are now causing problems.

And this time, the athletes themselves are to blame. When some toilets used by the athletes were found clogged, plumbers were called in to clean them. They found that thousands of used condoms, which had been flushed down, were clogging the system.

Ayodhya verdict Indian public figures unite ahead
Delhi, Sep 30 : Bollywood stars and leading public figures came together on Thursday ahead of the Ayodhya ruling to appeal for calm, stressing that India's religious diversity was its strength. The High Court in Uttar Pradesh is set to rule on a bitter Hindu-Muslim dispute over who owns a holy site claimed by both groups in the town of Ayodhya.

The case is seen as a test of the country's religious harmony and political maturity after the dispute sparked some of the worst communal violence in the country's history in 1992, which left 2,000 people, mostly Muslims, dead. Home Minister held the third government press conference on the Ayodhya issue in recent weeks on Wednesday and again appealed for cool heads to prevail, adding that the country had "moved on" since 1992.

The president of the ruling Congress party, , said that "almost the entire country has expressed its willingness to accept the judgement by imposing faith in the impartiality of the judiciary. "The past is the past. It shouldn't burden and cripple the present," said Indian-born novelist Salman Rushdie, whose most famous book Midnight's Children is set in the turbulent post-partition period.

"The argument is between the ancient and the modern and about how you live in the modern world," he told a newspaper on Wednesday.

All Hoping for peace and calm......
