I can say that the Narendra Modi Stadium which is the largest in the world, is not just the biggest, but is one of the best stadiums in the world.

The facilities for the spectators and players are top-notch. This is not only the largest but it is one of the best stadiums in the world. I am very proud that our country has such a stadium.
