In a major boost to winter sports infrastructure in Ladakh, Lt Governor Vinai Kumar Saxena on Thursday inaugurated the Union Territory’s first international-level artificial ice hockey rink at NDS Stadium here, describing the facility as a major investment in the future of Ladakh’s young sportspersons.
Built at a cost of approximately Rs 42 crore, the state-of-the-art rink is equipped with a 24×7 chilling facility, enabling ice hockey players to train throughout the year, irrespective of the natural weather conditions.
