The velodrome at the Indira Gandhi complex is still under construction

Delays in handing over several venues in Delhi are causing "serious concern" to the organisers of the Commonwealth Games, due to take place in October.
The athletics stadium, swimming complex and Games Village have still not been completed with five months remaining.
"There remains much to be done to ensure a cohesive games delivery from the opening of the Games Village on 16 September," a statement said.
Athletes from 71 nations, mostly former British colonies, are set to compete.
Last month it was confirmed that English athletes would compete in the Games despite security concerns. (from BBC)
