| J&K Sports Council mum over illegal use of MA stadium by stunt performers, learners | | |
Shiv Thakur
Jammu, May 28: Raising a Serious question mark over the functioning of J&K Sports Council, some peoples, violating norms are seen learning driving and perfoming stunts in the stadium.
Such peoples can be seen in stadium performing the stunts without seeking any permission from the sports authority. Some of the localists can be seen everyday learning to drive in the areas where players used to do warm ups while the other peoples used to do jogging. The risk of injury is always there as the new learners don’t have full control over the vehicles but ignoring all this, the sports authorities are still waiting for any incident to occur.
One of the Aggrieved parents of a sports person namely Mrs Sakshi shared his views with early times, “Driving should be avoided in the stadium as their is a great risk of the children being hit by those learning drivers”. She further said that randomly parking should be restricted and a particular parking should be made. She also rued that there is no arrangements for watersupply as there is a single water filter in the indoor court. “There is lack of instructors as well as staff is careless n even parents had to instruct their wards as there is an accused shortage of staff”, she added.
All attempts of attempts of early times to contact Rajan Sharma (Manager Outdoor) went in vain as he was not available for the reply.
Dileep Thusoo, Secretary Jammu and Kashmir Sports Council admitting the mistake said that these violators are not under their control saying-“Members of Jammu club overrules the security arrangements. Barriers had been placed to avoid such violations but admonishing gatekeepers they (Jammu club members) used to help these violators to enter into the premises of MA stadium”.
