Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh): Madhya Pradesh is going to get a sports complex spread over 50 acres soon, announced Iqbal Singh Bains, the chief secretary of Madhya Pradesh, on Thursday during the inaugural ceremony of 64th National Rifle Shooting Championship at State Shooting Academy in Bishankhedi.
The sports complex will be built on the vacant plot in front of the shooting academy itself, he said.
