Reacting to Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal s statement of Delhi making a bid for hosting Olympics in 2048, Indian Olympic Association (IOA) president Narinder Batra on Wednesday said that Kejriwal should have discussed the matter with IOA first. It s a welcome step if they re thinking of it but at the same time, Arvind Kejriwal should have been in discussion with IOA first. They can send an expression of interest but bidding is a very different process. I will say it s a welcome move but Delhi alone can t stage the Olympics. Multiple cities have to be involved, there are many things involved behind any competition, Batra told ANI.
