We identified that there is a significant population of our fellow Indians who are being left behind from participating in the grand cricket celebration owing to inaccessibility of our cricket stadiums. By building plywood-based ramp in the Ekana Stadium, Lucknow, our aim is to extend our support to society by enabling special fans with first-hand experience of watching their much-loved game.We will continue to undertake more such activities to solidify our commitment towards the betterment of the society.”
