DC Edit | Confident India ready to pitch for 2036 Olympics

Deccan Chronicle  

India has evinced interest to bid for the 2036 Olympics. Hosting the Olympics is not a bed of roses, especially in the modern era when costs of preparing a host city — a metropolis hosts the event rather than a country — and running the fortnight long event — are rising by the year. India may be up against the likes of Mexico and Poland in bidding for the 2036 event, which might seem far away now, but 12 years is not an extravagant lead time for a city to be ready to take on an Olympics. The progress Indian athletes have shown as recently as in the Tokyo Olympics, where Neeraj Chopra was the first Indian to win a track and field gold medal since 1896, and at the Hangzhou Asian Games might have also impelled the government to think of this 2036 bid. Once India accepts to play host to major sporting events it must also follow freer visa policies and travel, allowing spectators to come in freely from abroad, which wasn’t the case with World Cup cricket to which Pakistan fans were denied access.
