Under the priority basis of the current government's sports development initiatives and as per the directives of the Ministry of Sports, an initiative has been taken to construct 16 futsal grounds in Barishal city. Aiming for the physical and mental development of the young generation and children, the Barishal City Corporation (BCC) has finalized the list of these 16 futsal grounds under the playground improvement project and sent it to the concerned ministry. Estimated at a cost of 50 crore Taka, the project includes surface leveling, natural grass installation, peripheral drainage, LED floodlights, modern washrooms, and galleries.
There is a shortage of adequate playgrounds for children and adolescents in Barishal city, and most of the traditional fields have become unusable. However, welcoming the government's initiative, parents and the youth believe that this will reduce mobile addiction and foster the physical and mental development of the young generation.
Among the finalized fields are Kaunia BSCIC Ground, Alekanda Paresh Sagar Ground, Kaunia Housing Ground, and the ground adjacent to Alamgir Hostel. BCC property branch official Md. Shakil Ahmed stated that since playgrounds are one of the priorities under the Prime Minister's 180-day priority project, the DPP has been prepared and sent to the ministry accordingly.
