Wonderful football ground stadium. The capacity of the stadium more about 85000 .It is biggest stadium in India. After renovation the stadium has great look just beautiful. Presently Durand Cup tournament is going on. Gallery condition is very good. Drainage system is also good. Heavy rain also don't effect on the ground. Maintenance also good.

Amazing experience!!! I stay very close to this stadium and whenever there was a match, the whole atmosphere would be electrified. But when I went to watch a match between the two Local Club teams I could understand why. The fans go mad here. They enjoy the match to the fullest. The stadium is newly built and has comfortable chairs.

The great iconic stadium. Biggest football stadium in India with seating capacity about 90000. For seating plastic bucket chair are there. Great experience during any match. Only problem on matchday nothing is allowed inside stadium other than wallet and mobile. There should be a proper counter to keep the bags.
