The completion of the stadium, according to the CM, will be a significant boost to sports infrastructure in the state.

Meanwhile, project coordinator Sanjeev Kumar said that although work on the project started in 2017, they were faced with a shortage of labour and construction materials due to the ongoing pandemic, which hampered the progress of construction work.
