CWG 2026 brought a new twist… now it can be organized in India, discussion after Australia’s Victoria’s withdrawal

Big information has come to light regarding the Commonwealth Games 2026. Australia’s Victoria was going to host the Commonwealth Games in 2026 but has refused to host the Games. Now the hosting of Commonwealth Games 2026 will be given to the new venue. There is also a possibility that it can be organized in India.
 
Actually it was to be organized in Australia’s Victoria state but its estimated expenses were very high, due to which Victoria has refused to host it. Now there is a possibility that Commonwealth Games 2026 can be organized in India. It is believed that it can be organized in Ahmedabad. Earlier, in the year 2010 also India had hosted the Commonwealth Games in Delhi.
 
According to the information, the Gujarat government has also decided to bid for hosting the Olympic Games 2036. After the withdrawal of Ahmedabad Victoria, the Gujarat government can now consider bidding for it. The Gujarat government was gearing up to host the 2030 Games, with a target of creating infrastructure by 2028.
 
Explain that while giving information in this regard, Premier Daniel Andrews of Australia’s state of Victoria said that his government had agreed to host the Commonwealth Games from last year itself. But now his government is not ready to host it. Initially, a budget of two billion 600 million Australian dollars was fixed for organizing these games, but its cost has reached about seven billion Australian dollars. In such a situation, it has proved to be much more expensive than the budget.
 
The Commonwealth Games organizers have been informed by Victoria that the Commonwealth Games 2026 will not be organized by them. Regarding withdrawing from this event, Daniel Andrews said that there is no reason behind organizing it. There is an expenditure of the government in this but there will be no benefit.
 
CGF taking advice
The Commonwealth Games Federation (CGF) issued a statement saying they are consulting on their options. The CGF said the increase in estimated costs was mainly due to the regional, multi-city host model and the Victorian Government’s decision to change the venue plan and include more sports. “We are disappointed that we were given only eight hours’ notice and no consideration was given to discussing the situation to jointly find a solution before the government reaches this decision,” the CGF statement said. The 2026 Games were to be held from June 17 to 29 in Geelong, Bendigo, Ballarat, Gippsland and Shepparton.
