BJP MP Anurag Thakur: Former Sports Minister and BJP MP Anurag Thakur asserted that India are not only set to host the 2030 Commonwealth Games (CWG) on a magnificent scale but is also pursuing the hosting rights for the 2036 Summer Olympics.

India was formally ratified as the host of the Centenary Commonwealth Games in 2030 last November. India presented a compelling vision for the 2030 Games, centred in Ahmedabad, which will build on foundations laid by Glasgow 2026, enabling India to celebrate the centenary in style.

Speaking about India's preparations in the lead to the multi-sport event in 2030, Thakur told IANS, "The staging of sporting events in India is becoming larger and better than before. The 2030 Commonwealth Games are expected to be organised on a very grand scale, and India is also preparing to host the 2036 Olympics."
