The Karnataka government on Thursday went ahead with the ground-breaking ceremony for an enclosed stadium in Bengaluru’s Indiranagar, replacing a basketball court, the lone playground in the area, amid opposition from residents who termed it a “black day”.

The project by the Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) at the Victory Ground has sparked fear among the residents of Indiranagar as they feel the new enclosed space would restrict accessibility to a huge section of people, particularly children from the lower-income group . . .
