VELLORE: The Vellore District Sports Complex in Katpadi is struggling with serious maintenance and security issues, primarily due to the absence of a compound wall. According to official sources, the outdoor stadium, inaugurated in 2022, has eight 400-metre athletic training tracks. The national-level athletes training for the 400-metre run shared similar concerns, stating they can only use the facility for warm-ups due to its poor condition.
