Preparation for AIFF's Platinum Jubilee Nehru Cup suffered a jolt when the venue was
shifted from Jaypee Greens Atlantis, Greater Noida to
Bangalore Football Stadium owing to incessant rains across the region. The camp started in Bangalore from Friday, August 3, 2012.
Read a brief camp report and enjoy the camp pictures from here...
