Devendra Fadnavis, Chief Minister; Nitin Gadkari, Union Minister for Road Transport and Shipping, will also grace the occasion. The event that has positively stirred up the sporting and cultural atmosphere of the city, was inaugurated in presence of popular actor Akshay Kumar on May 6.

In a meeting held at Hotel Centre Point on Sunday, Gadkari took stock of the ongoing Khasdar Krida Mahotsav-2018. Dr Vikas Mahatme, Rajya Sabha Member; Ajay Sancheti, former Rajya Sabha Member; Sudhakar Kohle, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) City President and MLA; Girish Vyas, MLC; Dr Milind Mane and Krishna Khopde, both MLAs; Nanda Jichkar, Mayor; Sandip Joshi, Ruling Party leader in Nagpur Municipal Corporation (NMC); Virendra Kukreja, Chairman of NMC Standing Committee; Deepraj Pardikar, Deputy Mayor; Pravin Datke, former Mayor; Dr Rajesh Bagadi, and others also shared the dais on this occasion.

Gadkari while addressing the party workers said, playgrounds of the city do not have proper facilities for sportspersons. Changing rooms, wash rooms, and other basic facilities are lacking. The civic body should reserve Rs 10 crore in its budget to create these facilities for sportspersons, he said.

Commenting on cement roads, Gadkari said, the other cities are having greenery on the roadsides. The local body should work on this concept to increase green cover in the city by planting trees on roadsides. He also directed Bunty Kukde, Chairman of NMC’s Transport Committee, to increase fleet of green buses so that dependability on diesel could be reduced. This will also help in environment protection, he added.

Gadkari directed Mayor to increase the size of LED screens placed at every square under Smart City Mission as visibility was not clear. He also urged BJP workers to increase connect with the people by organising events in their respective areas.

Gadkari appreciated party workers for wonderfully organising different sports events during Khasdar Krida Mahotsav 2018. He said, the organising team has done a wonderful job and managed all the events capably. The concluding ceremony is scheduled on May 26 and all the party workers should work hard for mega success of the event, he added. In his speech, Gadkari announced that on his birthday on May 27 he would meet party workers and citizens after 1 pm at his residence in Ramnagar. He will be in Delhi on Sunday during morning hours to inaugurate an event.
