Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit on Saturday said the "suspicion" of corruption in the Commonwealth Games was on the Organising Committee headed by Suresh Kalmadi and welcomed the "instantaneous" probe ordered by Prime Minister Manmohan Singh which would clear the "cobwebs".


Dikshit said the corruption could have taken place in the activities undertaken by the Organising Committee to which the Central government had given loans to the tune of Rs 1,600 crore.

"We feel relieved and happy (at the successful Games). But what is disturbing is the corruption charges. They are very disturbing," Dikshit said in an interaction with Press Trust of India journalists.
