With low spectator crowd being seen in some stadia of the Commonwealth Games,Delhi government today asked the Organising Committee to provide free entry to school and college students to the venues.
Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit wrote to OC chairman Suresh Kalmadi,saying that the students should be allowed to the venues free on the basis of their I-cards,sources said.
The idea behind the move is to fill the stadia which are witnessing low spectator crowds.
Kalmadi had said on Monday that school students and people from lower strata of society would get free entry,but the sources said no arrangements had been made to ensure this so far.
There have been reports of mismanagement of sale of tickets and harassment on account of security,which was detering people from witnessing the Games in the stadia.
