Moghalpura Sports Complex loses its sheen

Hyderabad: The Moghalpura Sports Complex, which attracted several sports enthusiasts from Old City after its inauguration in 2017, has gradually lost all its shine with a few people visiting it for sports. However, when the GHMC zonal office of South zone was shifted from the dilapidated Sardar Mahal to Chandrayangutta in 2019, one of the floors of the Moghalpura Sports Complex was handed over to GHMC Charminar circle. As GHMC Charminar circle office operates from the sports complex, it was converted into the office of returning officer during the elections. “Especially during elections, there were a lot of restrictions due to security reasons discouraging sports enthusiasts from visiting the sports complex,” said a person, who used to play badminton.
