For Kolhapur-based Ar. Satish Patil and Associates, there was a challenge and a treat to creating a project in the sports category.

Since the ground got built on farmland with black cotton soil, the big challenge was laying the foundation and avoiding any issues during the rainy season.

Patil mentions.
