'''Redevelopment for FIFA U-17'''<br />
<br />
The stadium underwent Rs. 30 crores worth of refurbishment, including changing the roof, building 16 emergency exit bridges, two additional dressing rooms and setting up four training grounds in the vicinity.<br />
<br />
A 500 KW solar plant was installed to take care of more than 70 per cent of electrical requirements of the stadium as an initiative to minimize the unfavorable environmental effect of the stadium.<br />
<br />
===Roof===<br />
<br />
The stadium roof is made from fabric imported from Germany.<br />
<br />
===Lighting===<br />
There are diesel generators have been installed to guard against interrupted power supply during games.{{citation needed|date=May 2017}}<br />
<br />
===Pitch and outfield===<br />
<br />
For the ground, 200 tons of clay was imported from South Africa. The pitch was prepared based on the advice and guidance of Neil Tainton and John Klug from South Africa. Stadiums around India typically have outfields made from red soil. When it rains, the outfield tends to become sluggish and heavy. To minimise the interruption because of rain, the outfield here is sand based. A completely concealed underground drainage system helps quickly remove water. A practise ground with 10 practice pitches is also on the campus next to the main stadium.<br />
<br />
===Spectator comfort and safety===<br />
Individual bucket seat are available to spectators. There are no pillars obstructing the views of the ground. Two giant LED screens provide scores, replays and other information.{{citation needed|date=May 2017}}<br />
<br />
Spectators are monitored by a network of digital cameras producing images of very high quality, which are sent to security agencies. Axis cameras (the product of a Sweden-based company), like the ones installed in Mons-Bergen football stadium in Belgium, have been installed for the first time in India. The surveillance system is highly advanced when compared to conventional [[CCTV]]s. The stadium is designed to be [[earthquake-proof]], with fire-fighting and evacuation facilities.<br />
