New Delhi: The Indian Olympic Association (IOA) formally approved the country’s bid to host the 2030 Commonwealth Games during its Special General Meeting (SGM) on Wednesday. India has shown interest in hosting the 2030 Commonwealth Games, with Ahmedabad being named as the host city, but will have to submit proposals for the final bid before the August 31 deadline.
With Canada out of the race, India’s chances of getting the 2030 Commonwealth Games have increased. A team of Commonwealth Games officials, led by their Sports Director Darren Hall, recently visited Ahmedabad to inspect the sites and meet Gujarat government officials. A large Commonwealth Games delegation is expected to arrive there later this month. The Commonwealth Games General Assembly will decide the host country in Glasgow in the last week of November. India has previously hosted the 2010 multi-sport event in Delhi.
