The Narendra Modi Cricket Stadium, situated in the Sardar Vallabhbhai Sports Complex in Ahmedabad city in Gujarat, is hosting the fourth Test match between India and Australia.
In connection with a bulk video and voice message released by an allegedly pro-Khalistan group threatening to storm the Narendra Modi Cricket Stadium in Ahmedabad ahead of a Test match between India and Australia on March 9, Gujarat police arrested two persons from the Rewa district of Madhya Pradesh, an official said on Sunday.
In the message, people were asked to stay safe at home as a pro-Khalistan group had plans to storm the cricket stadium and install its flag.
The first day of the Test match was attended by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his Australian counterpart Anthony Albanese.
