After parks, playgrounds...

After some praiseworthy work in developing and renovating parks in the city, the BMP has now turned its attention to playgrounds. It has put forth a Rs. 100 million proposal to develop 154 playgrounds in the city, of a total of 700 identified. These playgrounds, between themselves, will cater to virtually every kind of sport ranging from cricket, basketball, throw ball to kho-kho, kabaddi, tennis, athletics, football, indoor sports, badminton etc. Other amenities like changing rooms, toilets, litter bins, drinking water, floodlights and jogging tracks would also be provided. The periphery would be lined with green cover. Good move, BMP.
