World Athletics Boss Sebastian Coe In India, Meets Sports Minister
World Athletics President Sebastian Coe met Sports Minister Mansukh Mandaviya on Monday and discussed India's intent to host the 2036 Olympics along with development of athletics in the country. Coe will also have an "informal" meeting with Prime Minister Narendra Modi during the short visit. The 68-year-old former middle distance runner, who won four Olympic medals during his decorated career, was received by Athletics Federation of India head Adille Sumariwalla at the Delhi airport this morning. The British great is currently in the race to become the next President of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and the visit, it is believed, is part of his campaign to drum up support for that.
