The plot was earlier allotted to Gavaskar to develop an indoor cricket training academy. In the absence of development, the government repossessed the land. The plots are in a bad condition and slum dwellers are using them for unskilled work.
Big responsibility on Rahane
A big responsibility has come upon Rahane who has been out of Team India for a long time. The government has expressed confidence in him. The government was waiting for this work to be completed for a long time but Gavaskar could not fulfill this responsibility.
