IAS and CWG

Why did the government opt to stick with Suresh Kalmadi as chairman of the Commonwealth Games committee rather than nominate the then sports minister Sunil Dutt to the post? It may have all been about control — the IAS babus, who felt they would be able to manage the film actor-minister, or the sports czars of the Indian Olympic Association, who wanted to run the show rather than allow the IAS lot. So it was much less about Dutt vs Kalmadi and more about IAS vs the sports bosses.
