Indore city’s iconic Nehru Stadium, which has been a central hub for sporting activities, is soon set to be replaced by an all new state-of-the-art sports complex. This new sports complex, will be built at an estimated cost of around Rs. 300 crores. It will encompass various outdoor sports like cricket, hockey, and football, as well as facilities for indoor sports.
Additionally, the complex will house over 50 shops and a food court, offering a wide range of amenities and dining options for visitors.
Old Stadium Makes Way for a Modern Sports Complex
The upcoming sports complex, replacing Nehru Stadium, will not only include the main stadium but the other smaller Nehru Stadium and the land of the municipal zone office will also be demolished to provide appropriate space for each and every sports activity. An international standard swimming pool will be a prominent feature of the complex, catering to swimmers of all levels.
The implementation of this project has already commenced and the responsibility of executing this initiative rests with the Smart City Corporation. The municipal corporation is determined to expedite the planning process and aims to finalize the blueprint within the next three to four months, ensuring that the “Bhoomi Poojan” ceremony takes place within the current year. This proactive approach demonstrates the commitment of the authorities to deliver the new sports complex at the earliest.
