Congress, Shiv Sena Oppose Football Ground to Exhibition Centre Plan

In Mumbai, there is a big football ground called the Neville D'Souza Football Ground.

Many children and grown-ups play football there, and it helps train young players.

The city wants to change this ground into an exhibition centre where big events are held.

Some important groups, like the Congress and Shiv Sena, say this is a bad idea.

They say the ground is very important for young footballers who need a place to practice.

They also say the city already has a big convention centre nearby in Bandra-Kurla Complex.

City officials say the land was always meant to be a convention centre, so changing it makes sense.

They also want a place for exhibitions because there isn't one nearby.

Now the city leaders will decide whether the football ground stays or becomes an exhibition centre.
