DB - have u visited Delhi recently... these guys for a change are spending some money in the right direction 😃 .. as poster mentioned lets not make this post on Delhi... but things are changing overall in India. I was amazed to hear my family friend experience in india last month. Its time to reevaluate our opinions on India😊 off topic. I guess.

If there is pressure to perform in fron of the world to get recognised of to achieve sanctions I see no reasons why Auth. in India won't make it happen (Olympics) in 2016.

Anshu I did not go to Delhi on my last visit to India. But have been there most of my trips. I would love nothing more than Delhi-India to be able to host 2016 Olympics. It remains to be seen what happens. I am not being negative or pessimistic about it just being realistic. Good luck and hope for best!! 😃

🤣 @ Vinit for Kho Kho and Kabaddi 🤣

Oh I was in Delhi 4 years ago and I was blown away!
Noida and Gurgao have become so hip, its unimaginable..
I have limited knowledge of what constitutes infrastructure though, hence started debate to figure out. I still have no views of my own regarding olypics hosting.. But delhi has some cool malls and the pollution is amazingly reduced.
👏 👏 👏

Do you think India would have been ready to host Olympic games in 2016?

YES! By the pace they were working on infrastructural changes in Delhi, it was evident. Minus the sealing etc, they were really progressing nicely with SubWay etc. Sad to learn this news all that improvement in the name of Olympics will stop.

Humor Corner:
What is the idea behind hosting Olympics in India?
PM - Can we plan steps to avoid performing so bad overseas, in Olympics?
Mantriji : Yes Saar, we will plan to host next Olympics in India only. 😆 😆



🤣 @ your humor corner Anshuman..

When I read the topic that's what I was thinking..First if we master atleast getting into the finals of 10 events in the Olympics(let alone winning any medals 😔 ), then we talk about hosting such events...Otherwise imagine our plight 🤢

Olympics in India is like Cricket World cup in Holland
I think first we should get more than 2-3 medals in a olympics game, show we are really able to compete(to win) and not just make trips for sightseeing

It would be very embrassing to see the host country win two gold medals, one in kabaddi and one in kho-kho 😆 and no other medals

I can still see Holland doing better in cricket than India at the Olympics. Our problem is not so much infrastructure as it is our performance.

exactly. my opinion has changed in the last couple of months since my folk visited india last summer and three months ago, and have heard about good changes 😊

and i still think india could have gone to host the olympics, it could have made greater impact on the economy.
