In Gurugram's Tau Devi Lal Stadium, the official helicopter of Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini remained parked for four days, impeding athletes' access to the running track and synthetic ground. Security restrictions around the helicopter likely caused athletes to be unable to use these facilities during this period. The helicopter was removed from the stadium upon the CM's return from Singapore three days ago.
Once back, the track was reopened for regular use. The basketball and volleyball courts at the stadium continued to be available for use. Athletes, coaches, and parents expressed concern over the disruption to their training, as even a few days of missed practice can significantly impact athletes preparing for competitions. One coach suggested the need to designate a separate location for parking VIP helicopters to avoid disrupting regular sports training.
Gurugram lacks a government helipad, and parking the helicopter in Delhi would incur additional charges. The stadium's proximity to the Mini Secretariat and PWD Guest House makes it a convenient alternative. Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini clarified that the helicopter was not parked as part of a standby arrangement but due to a machinery glitch.
Following the removal of the helicopter, athletes were allowed to resume their training on the running track and synthetic ground.
