India has expressed interest in hosting the 2030 Commonwealth Games, viewing it as a critical step towards the larger ambition of securing the 2036 Olympic Games.

Indian Olympic Association President P.T. Usha has stated optimism about their bid, especially given potential difficulties other host cities have faced. The bid process will conclude on March 31, and further details from the Commonwealth Games Federation are pending.
