Yes, definitely but it will take some time. In the recent times India is showing a remarkable transform among the developing nations and is growing day by day.

Conducting an international event like Olympics will definitely help our nation to set a mark among the superpowers.

It will introduce new opportunities in the field of employment and infrastructure and will attract foreign companies to invest funds (like sponsors).

And it will be an encouragement for our athletes too. They will get international facilities and training to boost themselves up.

Notably we had done achievements recently by hosting commonwealth games and other events like IPL, ISL etc which are quite successful and has helped our nation to meet international facilities.

But one suggestion I would say is prior to hosting such a big event India should continuously try to host other major sports events like commonwealth games, asian games and this will surely help in improving the infrastructure and facilities we offer and will make more confident to host the biggest sports event in the world.

Hello everyone.

Why not ! but not now. Because India is developing country. There are so many things need to developed. To host Olympics we need some crores of rupees. With that money we can change many issues in the country. After that if we host means that will be better.

Yes, India can host Olympic games in the future. As we all know the hosts are already decided till 2028 so India may bid for the editions after that. Till that time our per capita income would have increased considerably, GDP would have increased and we have already showed this year that we can be good hosts. No country is corruption free but it's events like this bring joy, wealth and International recognition to a Nation. 2032 is still far away and we can dream of hosting Olympic games around then. Our way of thinking towards our nation could have changed by that time. We have organised every international sports event successfully. Yes a lot need to be done in that regard but yes it is an achievable dream.

The preparation for the games are looked after by the Olympics committee and there is very less government intervention in decision making so games management and infrastructure can be put in place in time. If our economy can withstand demonetisation and the 2008 recession then I think we can bare the burden of hosting Olympic games. So many jobs would be created, world class infrastructure would come up. That will benefit us only. Commonwealth stadiums in New Delhi organise events throughout the year.

So yes, India can dream of hosting Olympic games.

Just about economic problems. If you spend million of dollar for building up infrastructures and facilities for hosting Olympics and then don't know how to use these things effectively so it's not the big deal.

Hi everyone. According to me. As we all know India is a developing country and developing day by day. So according to the current scenario we can say that India can host the Olympics. As we all know just a few weeks back India have hosted the under 17 football world cup. On international level. Which is a very successful project. And I think India is ready to host the Olympics.

I really don't know if India is really into hosting Olympic. For all the average Indians cricket is still there 'National Game'. Of course launch of ISL has indeed increased the popularity and love for football among us. We don't have much interest or top training centers for Olympic events. So there would still be a little long time for us to host Olympics.

As India is a democratic country there would a lots of critics for hosting Olympics. They would prefer to settle other internal concerns of India before hosting an Olympic.

On a positive note if India hosts Olympic, It would mark a historic and transitional period for India in the minds of other countries. Olympics would be much more considered in Asia with India hosting it. Hosting Olympics would also prove our capabilities and also make us on of the strongest nation inside the mind of foreigners.

So as dream has no limits. I really wish and pray the my INDIA also hosts Olympics in near by future.

Yes definitely, but before that we have to think about our country. Conducting the Olympics is not a big deal. There are many advantages by conducting Olympics games, due to this we can increase our GPD, because many tourism will visit and they will came to know about history of our country, here the minus point is for conducting Olympics we need hug amount.

I will support for hosting the Olympics.

Why not ? India has always aimed for development and optimism is necessary to achieve it. Olympics can be very well organised in India and this would lead to many advantages for India.

@ Increased Recognition amongst other country.
@ Better infrastructure and much more.

But,

India should opt for organizing Olympics maybe in 2028. It is so because the present needs of India is education and not recognition. Indians should be educated about cleanliness, tourism, etc, then only they will be able to respect foreign visitors and foreign players. Also better infrastructure and security system should be developed for success of the event which will take time.

Yes we can dream of hosting Olympics as we saw that recently concluded under 17 FIFA world cup attracted a lot of audience. This can further help to boost the confidence for the upcoming players and may also lead in future of India hosting FIFA world cup. These type of events when occur in a country help to increase the tourism which further helps to increase the economy of country.

As we saw during commonwealth games in Delhi there was a large infrastructure development, if such an event at large scale occurs is beneficial for a country. Yes India can host such a mega event like Olympics as India is having the required funds as we have seen many other events which required such a large scale of money for events to be successful is there. Despite these facts corruption is the main hindrance which may prevent such a large scale event, if its overcome it would definitely lead to a huge success of such event and would help economy grow in future.

Hi,

Yes, but it only a dream, the Olympics can't be implemented in the India where GDP is very low. It requires money and a planning, seeing the scam in common wealth games, we can't feel that happening of Olympics in India is good for development of India, it will deploy development of India. The man starting from fund generation & to the down in hierarchy is corrupted in the sports department. They spent their mind on how to extract out money from this government fund which was given for Olympics. India's GDP will improve if every officer would not take bribe and thus the money is sufficient to dream a Olympics.
