President Suresh Kalmadi on Tuesday met Prime Minister of
India Manmohan Singh and assured him that the preparations for
next year's Commonwealth Games were on track despite mounting
concerns about the tardy pace of work.

Kalmadi, also the chairman of the Commonwealth Games
Organising Committee, said the Prime Minister promised all
support for the successful conduct of the event, scheduled in
October next year.

"Prime Minister Manmohan Singh said Government was fully
aware that it was a matter of pride for India to be hosting
the Commonwealth Games here next year and that it would leave
no stone unturned to ensure the successful conduct of the
Games," the IOA chief said in a statement.

Kalmadi said Singh described hosting the Games as a
matter of "national prestige".

He assured the Prime Minister that the Organising
Committee was working round the clock to ensure that India
delivers a memorable and successful Games.

Kalmadi also briefed the Prime Minister about the recent
security conference for the Heads of Missions and the
International Security Liaison Conference to be held in the
Capital from Wednesday. More PTI PM
