Official sources said the Chief Technical Examination Wing under the Commission has decided to inspect other Games related projects too to check corruption.

The team is re-examining all the tenders floated by the different civic and construction agencies and other documents related to award these CWG-related works after it noticed misappropriation, inflated prices and tampering with post-tender documents by certain government employees in alleged connivance with private companies in the 16 projects, they claimed.

Construction and upgradation works being done at Indira Gandhi Sports Complex and Yamuna Sports Complex, Talkatora Garden Complex may appear in CVC's new watch list, sources said.
