RE: [HumJanenge] Use of stadia in Delhi for holding fasts/public meetings.

Why not. When stadia can be used for circus and other tamashas why not for these tamasha.

To:

Modi is on 3 day fast in a big university auditorium in Ahmedabad to promote harmony from Sep 17 to 20. 

In Delhi, a large no of stadia were constructed/modernized for Commonwealth Games only a short time ago. Why can these stadia not be given out to NGOs for holding fasts/protest meetings when needed, as they provide ideal place for such purposes. No tents are thus needed  nor any additional lights or fans, no toilets, water supply, dining places etc are needed. Security needs are minimal. 

Thus, Nehru stadium would probably have been a better place for Baba Ramdeo or Anna's fast than Jantar Mantar or Ramlila grounds. The stadia, developed at such huge costs, are in any cases lying unused most of the time.

Would we like to take a lesson for the future.
