Prime Minister Narendra Modi has announced India’s intention to host the 2036 Olympics, with preparations for infrastructure already underway. He urged Indian athletes participating in the Paris Olympics to observe the arrangements and provide feedback to strengthen India’s bid for the 2036 Games.
India is actively pursuing a bid to host the 2036 Olympic Games and plans to lobby for the inclusion of indigenous sports like yoga, kho kho, and kabaddi. The Sports Authority of India’s Mission Olympic Cell (MOC) has identified six disciplines for potential inclusion, with the goal of boosting India’s medal count. The inclusion of these sports would require significant efforts to develop a global base and meet IOC requirements.
