Concerns grow over short park timings in Hyderabad as summer approaches
Residents of Hyderabad are calling for extended evening hours at Lotus Pond Park, citing the current 4pm to 6pm timeframe as insufficient for families and children. Riyaz, a resident, took to social media to request an extension to 9pm, arguing that the short hours make it difficult for families to visit after work or school. Another resident, Sai Teja, echoed this sentiment, noting that the evening rush hour adds to the congestion and that the demand for park visits will increase as summer approaches. The call for extended hours comes as more families seek out outdoor spaces, and citizens are urging the GHMC Mayor and zonal commissioner to consider the public demand.10:49 AM Jan 31, 2025 IST
