Fans reserve hospital beds as the India vs Pakistan match up drives up hotel rates significantly in Ahmedabad. According to recent reports, supporters are using unconventional ways of transportation because of the exorbitant prices listed by hotels in Ahmedabad, where the high-tension match will be played. Due to the enormous demand from spectators for the India-Pakistan match planned for October 15 at the Narendra Modi Stadium, some local hotels are allegedly charging as much as Rs 50,000 per night.
Hospital beds, which only cost between Rs 3,000 and Rs 25,000 for a one- to two-night stay, have emerged as a more cost-effective option. In addition to saving money on housing, fans who choose this option gain from the package’s inclusion of meals and medical exams.
According to Dr. Paras Shah, Director of Sannidhya Multi-Speciality Hospital, stated by Ahmedabad Mirror, “Since it’s a hospital, they’re asking for a full-body check-up and an overnight stay so both of their purposes of saving money on lodging and getting their health checked out are met.
Simply put, the supporters’ decision to seek out hospital beds demonstrates the intense excitement surrounding the India-Pakistan match. This creative plan by fans to combat the soaring hotel prices is increasing demand in Ahmedabad’s hospitality industry, particularly in the hospitals. Additionally, it has now evolved into a surprise commercial opportunity for the city’s healthcare sector.
Notably, on October 15, India will play Pakistan at Ahmedabad’s Narendra Modi Stadium. On October 8, they will face Australia in Chennai to open their campaign. On October 11, it will be followed by a match against Afghanistan in Delhi. Notably, the squad will go to Kolkata to play South Africa and Dharamshala to play New Zealand after the Pakistan match.
Some fans are attempting to reserve hospital beds for the game in an effort to combat it. Officials from the hospital have noticed a rise in requests from admirers wishing to spend one or two nights there. The package offers more money to fans while also being more affordable. The present, which typically includes food, enables the ‘patient’ to stay with one more person.
