Exactly.. Too many events postponed it cancelled Even the news of Asian Games in 2030 being hosted by either Qatar or Saudi Arabia doesn't impress me much. Those empty stadiums everywhere. Apparently Indian Olympic Committee blamed Covid19 for not being able to make a bid as it says government was very busy with covid 19. I'm pretty sure if we had gone ahead with the bid, Delhi-Bhubaneshwar would have won it unless corruption in voting for the sole reason of equality and human rights issues with those 2 nations.

I’m not bothered by empty stadiums. I know I’m in the minority on that, but spectators aren’t needed for me to enjoy an event. Especially when it comes to rich countries who can pretty much afford to have white elephants. The venues look spectacular and there’s plenty of room for people who actually want to be there. As long as the streaming, results systems, and athlete facilities are good, I’m happy. Of course there should definitely be a case made about human rights in countries are awarding hosting rights for multi-sports games. India could have won because of the infighting between Qatar and Saudi. If the OCA didn’t want any enemies, India would have made a nice third party host. India’s bid would have been plagued by the skeleton of Delhi 2010 of course. “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.
