A delegation from India has actually officially provided in London a proposition for hosting the 2030 Commonwealth Games in Ahmedabad to the Evaluation Committee of Commonwealth Sport, the Gujarat federal government stated.
The Indian group was led by Gujarat’s Minister of Sports Harsh Sanghavi and the Indian Olympic Association (IOA) president, P T Usha, throughout the discussion on Tuesday.
The 2030 edition brings historical significance, marking 100 years of the Commonwealth Sport Movement, and India’s quote positions Ahmedabad as the host city for this centenary edition, a release by the Gujarat federal government stated.
Ahmedabad uses a compact video games footprint centred on international-standard locations, robust transportation systems, and premium lodging, it stated.
“Aligned with the Games Reset principles, the proposal places strong emphasis on affordability, inclusivity, flexibility, and sustainability. It commits to integration of para-sport, protection of human rights, promotion of gender equity, and embedding of a long-term legacy framework that ensures benefits extend beyond the Games to athletes, communities, and the wider Commonwealth,” the release stated.
“Hosting the Centenary Commonwealth Games in Ahmedabad will be a proud milestone, not just for Gujarat but for India. We see these Games as a catalyst – to inspire our youth, accelerate our journey towards Viksit Bharat 2047, and strengthen the Commonwealth Movement for the next 100 years,” minister Sanghavi stated.
“India’s bid is not just about capability, but about values. Ahmedabad is ready to pick up the baton from Glasgow 2026 and act as a springboard to the 2034 Games, ensuring that the centenary edition honours the past while shaping the future of Commonwealth Sport,” Usha was priced quote as stating in the release.
With strong and collaborated assistance from the Centre and Gujarat federal government, and the Commonwealth Games Association of India, the proposition highlights India’s aspiration to provide Games that are compact, sustainable, inclusive, and worldwide impactful, it stated.
