As India prepares its ambitious bid to host the 2036 Olympic Games, reports indicate that land in Gujarat—previously associated with spiritual and community activities—has been earmarked for key infrastructure development related to the event.
The site, located in a strategic zone of Gujarat, is under consideration for large-scale sports infrastructure projects, including stadiums, training academies, and athlete accommodation. Sources suggest that the area’s accessibility and existing space make it a suitable candidate for development aligned with Olympic standards.
Urban planning experts and state officials are exploring options to utilize open and underutilized land to meet the requirements of hosting a global event of this scale. The project aims to create world-class facilities that will not only serve the Olympics but also benefit the region’s long-term sports ecosystem.
The government’s vision includes the creation of a dedicated Olympic zone, complete with modern transport connectivity, green building technologies, and international-level amenities for athletes and visitors. This aligns with India’s broader infrastructure growth strategy and focus on sports excellence.
Ahmedabad has been proposed as the central hub for the 2036 Games, with Gujarat emerging as a key state in India’s Olympic roadmap. A detailed feasibility study is underway, and further announcements are expected as planning progresses.
