Rs. 25 lakh to be utilised for the purpose

Mysore/Mysuru: Four parks in Mysuru City Corporation (MCC) limits, which are filled with weeds and not properly maintained, will be developed by the MCC.

Out of Rs. 75 lakh grant given for the development of roads, drains and parks in MCC Ward No. 21, Rs. 25 lakh is being utilised for the development of four parks at Kuduremaala (Manasanagar) and Gangothri HUDCO Layout. While one park will be developed at Kuduremaala, three parks will be developed at Gangothri HUDCO Layout.

The three parks at Gangothri HUDCO Layout were not being maintained and had become useless for public use. 

Play equipment such as the slide and swing made from steel at one of the three parks has rusted and the benches, inter-locking tiles broken. These parks would be developed by installing play/ gym equipment and  benches besides laying of new pedestrian path.

The park at Kuduremaala too would be developed the same way, said Corporator                                                             Vedavathi to SOM.

She further said that the 8th Cross Road at Gangothri Layout would be concreted, rest of the roads asphalted and drains would be constructed.
