Sports complexes to be modernised

Sports enthusiasts and general public can look forward to having better facilities at the Indira Gandhi Sports Complex at Uppalam and Multi-purpose Indoor Hall at Lawspet with the Puducherry government planning to strengthen and modernise the infrastructure facilities at both the complexes at a cost of around ₹8 crore.

The funds for the modernisation had been earmarked in the 2026-27 Budget. The Directorate of Sports and Youth Affairs has requested the Public Works Department to prepare a Detailed Project Report, detailed estimates and technical feasibility reports for taking up the modernisation of the two sports complexes.
