AOC head says India under pressure on Commonwealth Games

SYDNEY: Australia's Olympic chief says any future games bid by India will be judged on its ability to successfully host the Commonwealth Games in October.

Australian Olympic CommitteepresidentJohn Coates said Thursday that infrastructure problems and continuing security concerns over New Delhi's Commonwealth Games from Oct. 3-14 would damage India's possible bid for a future Olympics.

Coates said that the International Olympic Committee "would certainly prefer that venues are all finished one year before" and that test events are conducted.

Indian organizers, who thought a successful Commonwealth Games could be a springboard for a future Olympic Games bid, are under pressure to complete the venues in time.
