The protesters said that Karavali Maidan was the only open ground besides Nehru Maidan in Mangaluru.

Hundreds of people use Karavali Maidan for walking, jogging and other outdoor activities daily. The work on a Kabaddi stadium had begun on one portion of the maidan and this would disturb the people using the ground for daily exercise and public gatherings.

The protesters have launched a signature campaign as a part of the ‘Save Karavali Maidan’ campaign. Over 280 people had already signed up for the campaign to save Karavali Maidan. International athlete P T Usha had also joined the signature campaign, said the protesters opposing the Kabaddi stadium.
