The sudden and untimely demise of former Finance Minister, Arun Jaitley has spread a wave of sadness across the nation and people have been trying to come up with ways to pay tribute to him. In keeping with that, a century-old stadium in the city will be renamed in remembrance of the man.

What’s In A Name? | The Delhi And District Cricket Association (DDCA) has decided to rename Feroz Shah Kotla Ground after former Finance and Union Minister - Arun Jaitley, who passed away on 24th August. He served as the President of DDCA and was also the Vice-President of the BCCI.
