Hero Honda signs MoU to be official partner for 2010 Commonwealth Games | Hero Honda, country's leading motorcycle manufacturer, on Friday joined hands with the Organising Committee
of the Commonwealth Games Delhi 2010 (OC CWG Delhi 2010) to be its official partner for the 2010 Commonwealth Games to be held in the national capital. Suresh Kalmadi,
Chairman of Organising Committee and Pawan Munjal, Managing Director and Chief
Executive Officer of Hero Honda, signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) at
a formal event held in the national capital. Addressing the media, Kalmadi termed
Hero Honda's initiative as laudable, prompting other corporate and private entities
to follow suit. "I am very happy to take Hero Honda on board because with your
associating with us, branding with us. I think it will be encouraging for all
the private sector to join us for the Games," Suresh Kalmadi said. Apart from
Hero Honda, National Thermal Power Corporation (NTPC), the state-owned largest
power generating company, has also signed an agreement with the Games Committee.
Pawan Munjal said it is only natural for Hero Honda to be an active partner in
the Games, as it has been actively promoting various disciplines of sports such
as cricket, golf and hockey. "It is only natural that Hero Honda should partner
Commonwealth Games 2010 in keeping with our very long term commitment for the
promotion of sports across various disciplines across India," Munjal said. The
Commonwealth Games 2010 in Delhi will be India's first major international sports
event after the 1982 Asian Games. The Games will be held between October 3 and
14 next year, and will be staged in India for the first time and in Asia for the
second time. |
