Indian sports infrastructure: Preparations for a big sports project are going on in Delhi. According to sources in the Sports Ministry, the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium will be demolished and a new ‘Sports City’ spread over 102 acres will be built in its place. For the construction of this new sports city, modern sports models used in countries like Qatar and Australia are being studied. The objective of this project is to create a modern sports infrastructure of international level in Delhi.
According to sources, the land on which Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium is currently situated will be completely redeveloped. The new sports city will be spread over 102 acres, making it one of the premier sports facilities in the country. The objective of this project is to establish an integrated and modern center dedicated to sports.
Preparation to become an international level sports city
To ensure that the new Sports City is world class, Sports Ministry teams are closely studying the successful sports models of Qatar and Australia. The information received from these international models will be used to finalize the design and features.
The stadium was built for the Asian Games
Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium was built for the 1982 Asian Games and was later renovated for the 2010 Commonwealth Games. It has long been one of the most famous multi-sports venues in India. With a capacity of approximately 60,000, the stadium has hosted major athletics events, football matches, major concerts and national celebrations including Independence Day celebrations. Historically, the stadium has been the home ground of the national athletics team and has held an important place in India’s sporting history for more than four decades.
Earlier this year, the World Para Athletics Championships were held at the JLN Stadium in New Delhi. A mondo track was laid for the event at a cost of approximately ₹30 crore.
