Olympic torch relay successfully held in New Delhi


NEW DELHI - The President of the Indian Olympic Association, Suresh Kalmadi, said Thursday's Olympic torch relay in the capital New Delhi was a success.

A torchbearer kindles the Olympic flame basin with the torch after the Beijing Olympic torch relay in New Delhi, capital of India, April 17, 2008. New Delhi is the 11th stop on the Olympic flame's global journey.

I think the spirit of the Olympics is universal and should be upheld by the whole world. The person who is in the picture above ran the first leg of the relay between Rashtrapati Bhavan, the presidential palace, and India Gate.
