Tirupati: The long awaited Municipal Corporation Indoor Stadium is ready for inauguration in April this year. The Corporation has taken up the construction of the Indoor Stadium at Indira Maidanam located in the heart of the city under the Smart City project to boost up sports activities.
So far, more than Rs 7 crore works were completed against the total cost of the project which was approximately about Rs 12 crore. The stadium has a wide range of facilities including shuttle badminton, basketball courts and Gym will be a boon to the people particularly the youth.
