India has formally entered the race to host the 2030 Commonwealth Games, with the Indian Olympic Association (IOA) giving its official approval during a Special General Meeting. The government will bear the entire cost of organising the event, with Ahmedabad proposed as the host city. According to PTI, the final bid documents must be submitted by August 31, marking a significant step forward in the country’s ambitions to stage the prestigious multi-sport event.

India has already filed an Expression of Interest to host the 2030 Commonwealth Games, proposing Ahmedabad as the venue. However, the country must submit its final bid proposals before the August 31 deadline.

Recently, a Commonwealth Sport delegation led by Director of Games Darren Hall visited Ahmedabad to assess proposed venues and hold discussions with Gujarat government officials, added the report.
