New Delhi, 20 August 2010: More trouble is in the offing for the Commonwealth Games - this time from India’s top tennis players who have reportedly demanded their dues to be cleared before confirming their participation for the high-profile Games to be held in New Delhi from October 3 to 14.

 

It has been reliably learned that top Indian tennis players, including Leander Paes, Mahesh Bhupathi, Somdev Devvarman and Rohan Bopanna have signed a letter demanding the payment of pending dues. The players claim the dues, dating back to 2008, are yet to be cleared.

 

 

The CWG has already been under a scanner due to the corruption allegations against the members of the Organising Committee, along with several incomplete Games’ projects.
