The KSCA has sought around 50 acres of government land in Mangaluru to develop a cricket stadium with practice facilities and other amenities. KSCA president B K Venkatesh Prasad has requested the land on either a purchase basis or a 50-year lease. The proposed facility aims to strengthen sports infrastructure and provide better opportunities for local cricketers.

Separately, Shetty inspected lakes at Kumpala, Amblamogaru and Harekala ahead of the proposed foundation-laying ceremonies for their development. He reviewed the sites and discussed the planned works with officials, focusing on lake improvement and maintenance.

MUDA officials were present during the inspections.
