The New Okhla Industrial Development Authority (Noida), in the deviation from its main mandate from the development of industrial cities, gave four plots measuring 33.44 lakh sqm during 2011-16 for the development of four sports cities to hold sports events Marque, Commonwealth Games and Asiad Games, note.
Three golf courses from nine holes and one international cricket stadium considered in sports cities along with infrastructure for other games, the report stated.

It was included in the Master Plan-2031 approved by the Government of Uttar Pradesh in 2011, the audit showed.
“Sports infrastructure imagined requires detailed specifications for facilities with serious developer involvement to implement the project.
However, Noida failed to put any specifications or parameters for the level of sports infrastructure intended,” CAG said.
“The technical feasibility criteria specified for developers are based on real estate development rather than the development of sports infrastructure,” he added.

“Lacunae in a policy was further emphasized by the failure of the due diligence Experience of the past, “Auditor records due to deficiencies marked in screening and alcohol.
Noida’s actions about sports cities basically require the approval and development of housing housing projects or groups, with “little focus” on the main purpose of creating world-class sports infrastructure, said.
“Rights, no sports facilities that have been developed at this sports city plot so far (December 2019) even after eight years roll-out from the initial scheme.” There is a clear case for the responsibility to be repaired by the government for the government.

Thus, any sub-divisions should be approved only 30 percent of the land to be used for housing and commercial development.
“Thus, against an area of ​​10.03.257.9 square meters (247.90 hectares) who qualified for the sub-division, all areas 33,44,193 square meters (826.34 hectares) were divided into 81 parts of the condition of the scheme.
