SVKM Plans ₹50-75 Crore Upgrade of Mumbai Sports Grounds with Public Access
Shri Vile Parle Kelavani Mandal (SVKM) plans to invest around ₹50-75 crore to develop three Mumbai sports grounds into Olympic-standard facilities. The sites, covering 14.11 acres, will remain publicly accessible for limited hours daily, with SVKM covering all costs and sharing revenue with the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation. The trust emphasized maintaining open spaces and enhancing sports infrastructure amid local opposition and a public interest litigation challenging the handover of these grounds.
