Ahmedabad and Gandhinagar are among the cities that could host the 2036 Olympic Games if India’s bid is accepted.
The blueprints for hosting the 2036 Olympic Games in these cities are projected between INR 34,700 Crore and INR 64,000 Crore.
As per the Times of India, a document titled ‘Review Meeting — Preparedness Towards Amdavad 2036’, was presented during a brainstorming session of the high-level committee engaged in the Olympic bid.
The final blueprint consists of the costs involved in hosting the quadrennial showpiece event in these cities.
Four other cities — Bhopal, Goa, Mumbai and Pune — were also mentioned as potential hosts for the 2036 Olympic Games.
Notably, the estimated OCOG budget for Ahmedabad exceeds even that of Paris 2024. However, the review notes, there is “good potential to optimise cost budget” for the Games in Ahmedabad.
