Even if India and China have the infrastructure to support the hosting of the world cup or they have the funds for it as long as they never bid themselves forward as organizers, is it possible for FIFA to appoint one? It seems that it is impossible because FIFA only appoints countries that volunteered because it means they have the ability or desire to become the organizer, because it seems that at this time FIFA is no longer considering the development of football from the countries that bidding to be the host, so every country currently has the opportunity to become a host as long as it has the funds and FIFA sees an opportunity to get bigger profits there.
Well, profitability is a big concern if the matches are being scheduled in India. Because the government never makes these events tax-free and it won't be acceptable for the FIFA. And football is not the most popular sport in India, unlike the case with most of the other countries. And given the current political climate, I don't think that the Indian government will take a favorable view of hosting the event in their territory. In case of China, the scenario is more viable. The government is more supportive compared to the one in India.
I think India or similar countries can't be good options because the world cup should be in a country where there is more interest in football and the government helps to be a better host and have a better experience. Otherwise, there are many other countries in the world to host the world cup.

Thanks for sharing this post mate as well as the link pertaining what's the do's and don'ts in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
I already heard some of the prohibitions made by their government and that they are very strict especially when it comes to the use of alchohol and drugs as that contradicts the beliefs and traditions of Saudi Araba as they are a Muslim country in the first place. Didn't shocked me though when I read the link you've shared but it just confirmed what I've heard that it is actually banned.
Well, what can I say, but good luck to those participants and fans who will watch the 2030 World Cup if KSA-Greece-Egypt will win the bid. Hopefully it's their competitor who will win the bid namely Portugal-Spain-Morroco as these country is far more free and lively from the first option and their national team is quite competitive as well, so they literally deserve to host the 2030 event.
Look what happened with Qatar. They lifted the ban on liquor and made arrangements so that the viewers visiting the country for FIFA will have better experience. Saudi Arabia also have similar laws, but the same might be lifted. So, based on the restrictions and the law the bid on the host for 2030 isn't gonna work.
Saudi Arabia Vision -2030. - A vibrant society – urbanism, culture & entertainment, sports, Umrah, UNESCO heritage sites, life expectancy.
Among that sports can be found. As a focus of the 2030 now itself the country have given importance to Saudi Arabia Pro League. The competence will be high on the bid and we don't know who gonna win the bid. Another thing, unmarried couples weren't allowed to reside. See what is happening with Ronaldo, so exceptions are there. Same as that arrangements for specific time period might be done.
That's very funny how people are speaking about Saudi Arabia in 2030 and they think this country can be a good host for the world cup while in this country a woman can't even walk free on the street, no matter how rich they are or what they can provide for the next world cup if they host it.
The most important this is to let people have freedom and that's how you respect people.
