New venue arranges received by the legislature in December after the underlying one was scrapped taking after open clamor over spiraling costs made no notice of the area of the cauldron, where the Olympic fire blazes all through the Games. 

Stadium modeler Kengo Kuma said on Wednesday there was "no compelling reason to stress" and the cauldron would be set securely subsequent to taking concerned inquiries regarding whether the $1.3 billion stadium would pass the Japanese Fire Service Act. 

Mori, who has as of now handled grumblings about stadium development postpones and needed to supplant the Games logo after a copyright infringement line, said principle stadium administrator, the Japan Sports Council (JSC), and Sports Minister Hiroshi Hase were chargeable for the most recent episode. 

"The games clergyman who administers the JSC must be considered dependable," Mori was cited as saying by Kyodo News on Friday. "We've had nothing given an account of the issue. It would have neither rhyme nor reason not to consider the Olympic cauldron if the stadium was getting worked for the Olympics."
