Commonwealth Games (CWG) Scam (2010)
India hosted the 19th Commonwealth Games in Delhi from 3–14 October 2010.
The total budget for organizing the Games was initially around ₹1,420 crore, but estimates suggest spending ballooned to over ₹70,000 crore due to mismanagement, corruption, and inflated contracts.
Allegations of financial irregularities surfaced during and after the Games, involving the Organizing Committee (OC), government officials, and private contractors.
