3.Common wealth games(CWG) Scam :

Roofs of stadiums and a overbridge collapsed due to inferior material and bad construction. If that wasn't enough, imagine they rented a liquid soap dispenser for Rs 187 from one firm and bought the same from another for Rs 9,379!

2010 Common wealth games Organising committee chairman Suresh Kalmadi became public enemy number one in the CWG scam

4.The Karnataka land scam :

The Karnataka land scam is all about keeping it in the family. Chief Minister B S Yedyurappa is accused of denotifying prime land in and around Bengaluru and then allotting it to his sons, relatives, juniors and colleagues for 1/10th their value.
