INDIA is yet to decide on a host city or region for the 2036 Olympics (bid).

- Indraneel Das

The International Olympic Committee welcomed "India's interest in hosting a future edition of the Olympic Games" but said no potential host region has been selected so far. Not just that, the IOC also informed this newspaper that it was mindful of the ongoing bitter infighting within the Indian Olympic Association (IOA) between its president and Executive Council members. This means that the letter of intent sent to the IOC on October 1 by the IOA did not mention a potential host city or region. This newspaper had already highlighted that India is yet to select a host city or region to host the Games on several occasions. As things stand, the bid process may not be that easy without a host region or city and with infighting in the IOA.
