Nacharam: Residents of HMT Nagar in the division feel disappointed with the poor maintenance of the park by GHMC officials in their locality. The officials along with public representatives long back inaugurated the park amid huge publicity to provide pleasant atmosphere to elders and children. But now the situation is different in the park where lack of facilities makes the people wary of even entering.
Especially, playing equipment for children was damaged with the negligence of officials concerned and the staff. Kids who visit the park along with their parents were fond of playing slider. But it was badly damaged. Even though the children want to play the slider parents are not sending them to play for fear of injuries their wards. According the colony residents, there were instances of children getting injured. Housewife Saritha who visited the park along with her kid lamented that officials were not bothered to set right the things though they submitted a number of representations to them.
Apart from the slider, most of the playing equipment were made with iron metal which are rusting and poses health-related threats to the children. The sand laid in between them was also not changed and there were plastic covers and other waste materials mixed in it. Another resident Srinivas urged the officials concerned to address the problems in the park at the earlier.
When contacted, corporator Shanthi said that the issue of slider came to their notice and it would be repaired at the earliest. She said that they would address problems at all the parks in the division.
