Indians adjust to common bathrooms at CWG Village
July 21, 2014 17:51
The sizeable Indian contingent at the Commonwealth Games Village in Glasgow, Scotland, has taken a liking to the residential facility in the East End area of the city -- the exception being having to put up with common bathrooms.
The concerns arising over the outbreak of norovirus (stomach bug) outbreak at the Athletes' Village notwithstanding, the Indians have given a thumbs up to the hospitality offered by the Games' Organisers.
However, they would have preferred attached bathrooms like the ones built in Delhi four years ago. "I think the Delhi Village was better planned and had more open space. But the overall quality of the Village is better here and the food is good. Here we also share the toilets but that has not been much of a problem so far," paddler A Sharath Kamal, a three-time gold winner in CWG, said.
