DDA rejects BCCI request for stadium land

New Delhi: Delhi Development Authority (DDA) has rejected a request for allotment of land by the Indian cricket board (BCCI) to construct a modern stadium in the national capital.

The DDA has turned down the request of the BCCI for allotment of land near Okhla to construct a modern cricket stadium, saying the area needs a green cover instead of a stadium.

"We have rejected the BCCI request," Naseeb Singh, MLA and elected member of the DDA told PTI.
