Issues with Delhi

April to August too hot. Rains can cause mayhem at times.

From October onwards the pollution problem starts. Till the time of CWG there wasn't this much pollution.

Gandhinagar live weather 

29°

Feels like 36°

 

 

 

Delhi live weather 

36°

Feels like 48°

 

Likewise Hyderabad, bangluru unfortunately simply do not have the terrain or city planning to be hosting Olympics despite having better weather.

 

I live in Delhi but am practical enough to understand that there are other cities which are better choices. And none better than Gandhinagar imho.

Athens is equally hot in July and August but they held the 2004 games in Mid august

September is the best month weather and pollution wise to host anything in Delhi. It's not too hot, air pollution levels are the lowest and rains are not that heavy. No wonder they hosted the finale of the G20 summit in Sept. 

 

Olympics are always held in end July- Aug, never seen a Sept games since Sydney 2000. Maybe as that was in southern hemisphere

Agreed 100%. If they can push the summer Olympics to September then Delhi is a good option.

Fifa WCs are also generally held during summers but the last one in Qatar was held in December. I believe it's up to the host to decide which month is best suited weather wise in their country.
