Rains Causing Havoc at Archery Grounds

Commonwealth games preparation is in a desperate need to stop the rains. The monsoon is another major reason for the delay in constructing venues and stadiums.

From thetimesofindia.ndiatimes.com

“The rains have created huge rough patches on what was a lush green field not so long ago. The field doesn’t look good at all now. If it doesn’t pour in the next two weeks, we will be able to get the grass back in a week’s time,” competition manager-organising committee Rathin Datta said.

The Delhi Development Authority (DDA), the owner of the complex, is worried about the state of the venue, but is confident that things will be in order by the time the athletes start arriving September 23.

The potholes around the archery arena will be tackled by laying an artificial layer of grass if the rains do not stop pouring in a week’s time.  The DDA officials say that the venue will be ready by September 23 before the athletes start arriving.
