As a result, the Athletics Championship was only to be held during this time span," said Vineel Krishna."Many people were quite surprised at how we are able to pull off two championships at the same venue with the standards that needed to be maintained for the championships. Hosting these tournaments came with challenges, but we were quite confident.

In addition to the international football tournament, we also have athletes from significant nations like Sri Lanka and the Maldives competing in the athletic event. They will all return with a piece of memory from Odisha. They become our brand ambassadors," he said.Speaking on the vision for the future, the Secretary also said," We want to host multiple championships like this in the future at the same location so that the entire stadium complex is very optimally utilized.
