Facilities
Faizabad Stadium is one of the selected stadiums in Uttar Pradesh with a multi-purpose hall and an swimming pool. Other facilities offered allow people to play: Football, athletics, volleyball, hockey, basketball, badminton, cricket, handball, table tennis, taekwondo and wrestling.
Controversies
The Lokayukta office has received a complaint from Bhanu Pratap Singh of Ayodhya - who has accused the minister of corruption in the construction of an international stadium in Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh.
According to the complainant, the sports minister had a nexus with former sports director Hari Om and former project manager R.D. Prasad, and had deliberately delayed the construction of the ₹ 86 crore Dr Bhim Rao Ambedkar Stadium paving the way for an escalation of costs to ₹ 150 crore.[3][4]
