DDA…simply amazing! Here's why

Now, here’s what I was trying to say in my last post, but stopped short. I thought it best to let you read it first in the newspaper.

If you look up today’s HT and turn through the sports pages chances are that you would notice a brief item with a headline – Playing golf just got cheaper.

But, it’s not the headline which will make you curse the DDA but follows …

Here read it for yourself…

Carrying forward its endeavour of “taking golf to the common man’s doorstep”, the Delhi Development Authority (DDA) threw open the country’s second public course on January 8. Though a practice range and three greens were in existence since 2003, the nine-hole course was commissioned last Thursday. Adjacent to the Bhalaswa Lake Complex in the northern end of the capital, officials are confident the Bhalaswa course will be a boost for “deficient” areas…

My point here is that after getting embroiled in the ‘lottery scam’ (draw of lots) the DDA had the guts to do something like this.

That’s why I had said the DDA never ceases to amaze me.
