Speaking on the occasion, Irfan Manhas said, “The construction of the Aarbagh Cricket Stadium was a long-pending demand of the locals particularly youth of the area. We are committed to fulfilling their aspirations, and the construction of this stadium is a step in that direction. The completion of this stadium will provide a platform for our young talent to showcase their skills and will also promote sports tourism in the region.”
