Paul lauds India for fantastic CWG opening ceremony

LONDON: NRI industrialist Lord Swraj Paul on Sunday congratulated India and its people to make the opening ceremony of the Commonwealth Games in Delhi a huge success and said critics would now realise India is able to meet its international commitment.

Commenting after witnessing the fabulous opening, Lord Paul said, "Congratulations to India and the Indian people, specially all those who have worked very hard to achieve what they have done.

"All of us, I am personally proud of India and its people. I hope critics in future would realise India does things in its own style and timing and they should not judge India from their way of thinking but India is able to meet its international commitment. It is great pride to be of Indian-origin."

Lord Paul, Britain's Ambassador for overseas business, said Mrs Sheila Dikshit, the Delhi chief minister deserved special qudos.

"Congratulations specially to Mrs Dikshit whom I have always known as a person of great commitment. I genuinely feel she has done a fabulous job."
