Commonwealth games come to an end with a great pomp and show. The spirit of athletes brought the nations closer to each other. With smiles and proud moments India bids farewell to the games. The volunteers and the organizing committee were thanked for putting up such a great show and host.

The early fears that in Delhi, these ideals may not be realised have been proved groundless. With Thursday’s closing ceremony as spectacular as the opening, with most of the sporting events in the 11 days in between going off without a hitch, Delhi could deservedly bask in the thanks and congratulations that speakers at the closing ceremony heaped on it.

At the end, sport was the winner. The crowds cheered the triumphs of athletes from all over. And they stood with pride each of the 38 times the national anthem — following each gold medal win — played out.

The Indian contingent’s total haul of 101 medals surpassed all expectations.

There were some games which saw less number of audiences due to unsystematic way of selling tickets. Gradually, the availability of tickets brought a large number of people in the audience and cheered the winning participants. Surpassing all the expectations Indians finish at 101 medals placing itself in the second position for the first time.
