NKDA to hire agencies for New Town park maintenance

The New Town Kolkata Development Authority (NKDA) is set to hire agencies for the maintenance of parks and playgrounds in New Town. This decision follows resident complaints about poor upkeep in some areas. NKDA manages several parks, including AE Park and CE Park. Residents reported issues like overgrown weeds and unmaintained facilities, prompting the need for regular maintenance. The identified parks for maintenance include Professor Shanku Park and the biodiversity park at AC Block. NKDA aims to improve the condition of these green spaces over the next two years.
