Hey I have heard that apart from the taking over of the parks, the GHMC was also requested to release an amount of Rs.5 crore too, for the development only.

Yeah, now HMDA is going under a big financial crisis, and they have got no funds and money for the maintenance of these public parks, that is why this is happening.

Every year, an expenditure of as much as Rs.4.50 crore was being incurred in maintenance of these parks which has become a burden on HMDA’s present financial status and no longer can be maintained by the civic body.

Actually, under the HMDA, the urban forestry wing developed these parks, medians, greenery under flyovers in the GHMC area as part of city beautification and in the long run, these facilities were supposed to be maintained by communities and local bodies concerned.
