The Indian cities of Chandigarh and Bhubaneswar were today awarded hosting rights of next year’s Asian Relays and the 2028 Asian Indoor Championships by the continent’s athletics governing body during its executive council meeting in Hong Kong. The Asian Athletics Association’s (AAA) council meeting was held ahead of the Asian U20 Championships from May 28 to 31. World Athletics Vice-President Adille Sumariwalla, who attended the AAA council meeting in Hong Kong, said that India will host the Asian Relays in 2027 to be held in Chandigarh and Bhubaneswar will host the Asian Indoor Championships in 2028. The Athletics Federation of India (AFI) had last year submitted the bids to host both the events.
