Concerns Raised Over Sports Ground Use for Religious Event at Ropar College
Alumni, students, and athletes at Government College, Ropar, have opposed the use of the college's sports ground for a religious event organized under the district administration and the Aam Aadmi Party. They expressed concerns about damage to the football field and running track caused by heavy machinery during event preparations. The sports ground, once restored through community efforts, is valued for training and competitions. Officials, including the Deputy Commissioner and Punjab Chief Minister, are involved in the event scheduled for late July.
