Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium Main Arena: With the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium littered with debris following a music concert, the Sports Authority of India (SAI) got into damage-control mode, claiming that the stadium has been restored to its usual conditions. On Monday night, SAI informed that the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium Main Arena will be in top shape to host the Indian Super League (ISL) football match between Punjab FC and Chennaiyin FC on Thursday.
The stadium had hosted Punjabi singer Diljit Dosanjh’s Dil-luminati concert and that had left trash all around with alcohol bottles on the track and the long-jump pit, rotting food strewn around on track and vehicles driving on the track.
But on Monday, SAI claimed that the turf had been restored to match playing condition before the Diwali game.
