international media comments on the dazzling opening ceremony of the Commonwealth Games in New Delhi on Sunday.
Newspapers in two major Commonwealth countries, Australia and Great Britain, used terms like 'An ancient land opens its heart to the world', 'India opens doors to the world at opening ceremony' and 'India sweeps aside Games shame' to describe the two-hour cultural extravaganza that unfolded at the Jawahar Lal Nehru Stadium on Sunday night.
People across Britain watched the ceremony live on BBC and were all praise for it with NRI Industrialist Lord Swraj Paul summing up the public reaction by stating, "India has done itself proud. It was a great show."
'The Guardian' newspaper said it was a moment of national pride for India, which had drawn flak for the troubled build-up to the Games.
