OC hands over completion certificates of all venues to CGF

The Commonwealth Games Organising Committee Monday handed over copies of the completion certificates of all competition and non-competition venues, including the Games Village, to the Commonwealth Games Federation (CGF) chief executive Mike Hooper.

"We got copies of the completion certificates given by the Municipal Corporation of Delhi to the venue owners today and, as promised, handed them over to Mr. Hooper," OC Organising Committee chairman Suresh Kalmadi said in a statement.

"We are confident that the Commonwealth Games Federation and its members will be satisfied."

The Municipal Corporation of Delhi issued 14 completion certificates to the venue owners of Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium Complex, Indira Gandhi Indoor Sports Complex, RK Khanna Tennis Stadium, Dr Karni Singh Shooting Ranges, Thyagaraj Stadium, all facilities in the Delhi University North Campus, Chhatrasal Stadium and Ludlow Castle School.

The New Delhi Municipal Council last week had given completion certificates for three venues -- Major Dhyan Chand National Stadium, Talkatora Indoor Stadium and SPM Aquatics Complex.

The Delhi Development Authority (DDA) provided the completion certificates for its venues, including the Games Village, Siri Fort Complex and Yamuna Sports Complex.
