Nellore modernising 46 parks to enhance community spaces
Ponguru Narayan mentioned about the modernisation of the 46 parks being undertaken at a cost of ₹13.5 crore during the recent Independence Day speech, of which 33 have already been completed
In the city of Nellore, 46 parks are undergoing modernisation as part of an initiative proposed by the Minister for Municipal Administration and Urban Development, Ponguru Narayana. The aim of this project, announced during the recent Independence Day speech, is to provide citizens with lung spaces and relaxing zones, in addition to play areas for children. The budget allocated for this initiative is ₹13.5 crore, of which 33 parks have already been completed.
The master plan devised by Mr. Narayana under the 'Arogya Nellore – Aahlada Nellore' concept envisions smart parks being equipped with open gymnasiums, community halls, and play areas. The play area is exclusively designed for children, while the community halls cater to the elderly citizens, providing a space for spiritual orations and group bhajan activities.
This initiative is intended to be replicated in the remaining 45 designated parks spread across the city's 25 municipal corporation divisions. Some of these parks are also designed to include water fountains, walking tracks, colourful wall art, night lighting, greenery, and landscaping.
