I think it is not so much good to host as there is so much corruption at the back and it brings our country a bad name. And the arrangements should be in the favour of other countries. As a developing country, we can't do such a risk now. We can think of it when all the problems were solved. Hosting is a great opportunity for our country but the mind set of politicians is to make so much money and get corrupted.

Hello everyone, from my point of view, Anyone can do anything if he or she wants to and also if they have the capability to do that. That's why India can host olympics as according to international reports India is growing with highest speed. India has Infrastructure, Indians are motivated enough to organise something and make that possible. So, yes, India can host Olympics.

As my point of view, yes, we can, but it's not all about the capabilities of a country like India. It's about how our leader takes these responsibilities in a specific manner to give high quality of service and environment to each and every athlete. We have seen what happened in commonwealth games. Before organising an event like this, we have to develop the highest level of infrastructure as well as good governance policies, scrutinize administration, more capable athletes.

Why can't when we have dreamt about supercomputers, satellites and succeeded the citizens of other nations not even believed their own eyes and minds. India has such power, zeal in their minds and hearts. So Olympics is not a great achievement when compared to these, only thing is we and our so-called govt should be transparent in all way. We have seen the scams during Commonwealth in Delhi that should not happen. We need a very big area or platform to conduct games. People have to support and appreciate the ideas for well being of the nation. Hosting the Olympics will be the dream of every nation if we get a chance we have to carry out successfully.

Yes, We can dream of hosting the Olympics. As we know that it requires planning, finance and proper management but we can make it a reality, if we are self, determine to do that. India is having a big ratio of the youth population and it can help in hosting Olympics. We know it will have huge long-term benefits as we can understand the importance of hosting the Olympics. We will get recognized by all the countries and it will help to boost our economy and we can think of improving our GDP by the investment of other countries in our country. We can understand the importance of it.

India has enough land, enough human resource, enough technology and enough money. And India has already successfully hosted commonwealth games. So of course, India is able to host big events even Olympics. Security might be a concern. But I think India can provide enough security also. So the question is not "Can India" its "Should India host Olympics".
The thing is hosting events like Olympics requires large money. It requires too much land and infrastructure, simply it requires large money. I had told India has enough money, what I meant is India has a big economy and Indian governments has big budget. So it can host it using this money, which could be used for the benefits of the people.
You may think Olympics provides employment opportunities to many people and hence the GDP may increase. But I do't think so. Olympics does provide employment. Even narega yojan provides employmet - digging holes and filling them up, and government pays the employees for doing nothing anything useful.
Olympics provides employments in constructing and all, but all those becomes useless after Olympics end.
So the government has to simply spend money which could be used for people's benefits.
There are many people in our country who are struggling just for food. And the children are not having the nutritious food. They are losing their basic right - education. There are many things on which money has to be spent. So I'm pretty clear about this, It would be a bad idea if government decides to host Olympics in our country.

In my view as INDIA is a developing country and we learn a lot from commonwealth gam3s when we are hosting it and as India has so many resources we have good infrastructure we achieve this dream very soon as it encourage sportsman and youths to do their best in Olympics although there are problems of poverty besides this we have many sources.

It is not a right time to hosting the Olympic because at that time we don't have such type of infrastructure and management and cities for living the athlete and traffic management system is a very challenging in our country.

Yes, indeed we can, but the question is 'should we?'. I think we should it is good source of revenue through tourism. It will certainly give a good opportunity for Indian athlete to show their charisma, and also it will give a nudge to the 'all time backward' performance of Indian Olympic Committee and finally people will realise there is more to sports than Cricket.

Hello friends,
In 2010, Delhi hosted Common wealth games. But Indian authorities were criticized with the management and poor infrastructure. Complain were so much that we Indian felt ashamed. When comes to hosting Olympics, Question is who should we trust with management as corruption is everywhere, it's better to develop current Players and training academy of sports, sorry to say right now we can't waste money and still get ashamed by international players and countries.
So We should not dream about hosting Olympics.
