Indian Sports Ministry Sends ACs to Paris Olympic Village

With temperatures soaring in Paris during the 2024 Olympics, the Indian Sports Ministry has dispatched 40 portable air conditioners to ensure the comfort of Indian athletes. The decision followed discussions with the Indian Olympic Association and the French Embassy.

The lack of cooling in the athletes' rooms had become a concern, especially with temperatures reaching up to 40 degrees Celsius. This initiative aims to provide a more comfortable environment for athletes to rest and perform optimally. The move aligns with actions taken by other countries, such as the USA, to manage the heat at the Games.
