City will be the venue for national inter-district junior athletics meet for the second time in a row. It will be held from November 24 to 26.

Since the government did not fully reimburse the funds spent on the conduct of the games, the expenditure during the games should be scaled down and the inaugural and closing ceremonies conducted without much fanfare, in charge District Collector G. Srijana said on Wednesday reviewing the arrangements. No event manager should be hired.

District Sports Development Officer June Rodrigues Gallyot, Special Deputy Collector Sattibabu and GVMC Additional Commissioner G.V.V.S. Murthy participated.
