Delhi athletes express anger over concert damage at Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium

Athletes in Delhi are upset after a concert by Diljit Dosanjh at Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium left the venue in poor condition. The stadium, used for training, was covered in garbage, including food and alcohol bottles, after the event attended by 35,000 fans each day. Equipment used by athletes was reportedly broken and carelessly discarded. The track was stained and soaked in liquids, causing concerns about its condition ahead of upcoming competitions. A clean-up is underway, but damage to the track may affect future events. The concert organizers have rented the stadium until November 1, and athletes have struggled to train during this time. Concerns have been raised about the impact of heavy loads on the track's surface, which was recently relaid.
