Municipal Commissioner Pravin Kumar on Saturday visited Indira Priyadarshini Municipal Stadium and directed VUDA officials to carry out repairs to the stadium.
VUDA has committed itself to carry out repairs to the pavilion block of the stadium spending Rs.50 lakh to Rs.60 lakh.
In an effort to restore it, first repairs should be carried out to windows, toilets, rooms allotted to various sport associations and the conference hall.

During his visit to Bhimili, he told officials to blacklist the contractor who stopped work on storm water drains midway and call for fresh tenders. Though the work was to have been completed in 2012, the contractor refused to carry on with old rates.
Mr. Pravin Kumar suggested steps to improve Jammu Cheruvu Jalaudyanavanam, Gokul, NTR and Potti Sriramulu parks. A plan must be prepared to develop Chillapeta cheruvu into a tourist spot. Ganta Stambham also should be improved.
He had inspected the ongoing construction of VUDA stadium.
At the Zone office, he interacted with Avanthi Engineering College students and asked them to play a role in the construction of individual toilets and get field experience besides serving society.
