Ahmedabad has acquired 1,000 acres for its Games plan, compared to Paris's 400 acres for the 2024 Olympics.
The city is using the 2030 Commonwealth Games (CWG) as a dress rehearsal for a 2036 Olympics bid.
The Rs 5,050-crore Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel Sports Enclave (SVPSE) is being built around Narendra Modi Stadium.
The enclave will include a 12,000-seat aquatics centre, an 18,000-seat tennis centre, and indoor arenas for multiple sports.
Gujarat is adopting an asset utilisation model to ensure venues have a purpose after the Games.
