Mini amusement parks eat up playgrounds
The councillors are about to complete one year but no development has been made to overcome the real problem. The present playgrounds are mini amusement parks, where rides have been pitched for kindergarten children and if one looks at other side of the coin, the main cause of providing open spaces to the young ‘gully’ players for playing in groups still remain there. “We have no space for special grounds. At most, we can convert the green parks into open spaces. We have playgrounds where children come and play but for gully youngsters, we are still struggling. Some areas have come up with cemented courts but there is no authority to maintain it,” said VP Singh, Commissioner Municipal Corporation. When asked about the party’s claim to build indoor stadiums in each ward, he said: “We have sanitation, sewerage and other things in our priority list. We have a limited budget and the practice to build indoor stadium in each ward is not possible. We can provide a cemented place for games like badminton or basketball but indoor stadiums are something different. It should be an initiative by the local administration and not the corporation.” On future plans, he said: “We have sent two requests for professional playgrounds, one in Sector 15 and other in Sector 22.The matter is with the chief architect of the UT Administration but I don’t know whether we will receive a green signal or not.” Notably, alongside a V5 road of Sector 35, a fenced badminton-cum-volleyball court was already built and the playing area is lying unused. “We cannot play on road and the open grounds are being converted into green belts. Now, when they have realised this, the officials are coming up with new proposals,” said Amit Mittal, a resident of Sector
22. Councillors’ speak

Chandigarh, November 20
Sports department is not under Municipal Corporation. In my ward, I have few open spaces that can be converted into open arenas for the youngsters. Hopefully, I will get the permission
soon.
I have identified a small piece of land along with the community center. Now, since the land is vacant, I have expressed my wish to come up with a playing ground for the youngsters. Due to rides and walk tracks in green areas the youngsters are not getting adequate space to
play.
I have written a proposal for the above mentioned activity. The green belt areas will be converted into play grounds. There is a shortage of place but hopefully we will come up with some
alternative
The policy was made without notifying any future plan. Now, we are out of space. I have already marked a land in my sector to overcome the
problem
We have no land to give to the youngsters for playing. I have requested the officials to solve our problem and we will hopefully get out of this
problem
