In a bid to enhance the beauty of the federal capital, the Capital Development Authority (CDA) has decided to construct a grand garden at D-Chowk.
The garden will be built in front of the Parliament Lodges as a memorial to democracy. Citizens and Parliamentarians will be able to visit the garden.
The project’s deadline has been set for August 14, 2023, as announced by Noor-ul-Amin Mengal, Chairman CDA.
The construction of the garden will be a joint effort between CDA and private companies. Private companies and developers will also be involved in designing and constructing the garden.
In a recent meeting, Chairman CDA directed all officers to utilize all available resources to ensure the garden is completed within the given deadline.
To guarantee the project’s success, the site survey for the construction of the garden will be completed within ten days.
The garden will have two central gates with a fence around it to provide a safe and secure environment.
The Chairman CDA also visited the garden site with officers, including Member Planning, DG Design, DG Environment, and other officials. During the visit, the Chairman CDA directed the officers to prepare PC-I for the project.
Furthermore, the CDA Chairman has directed the beautification of the green belt in front of the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA). More trees and flowers will be planted along the green belt to make it more attractive to the public, while also making it more environmentally friendly.
Stupid decision of.making a.show peace..
What don’t CDA make large publick parks as all four corners of islamabad as big as F 9 Park so people can benefit of it….
First of all i-14 main pani do phir garden banana
Stop focusing on one area…when will they pay attention to i-sectors! Make one more public park instead this!
Do we really need this garden?
“make it more attractive to the public”….is the public even allowed there anymore?
This area was reopened to the public during the last governments tenure and closed again as soon as the new government came in.
Why spend money here? Can’t hold Islamabad Municipal elections which were due in Dec 2022 but can spend money to build parks for parliamentarians?
We need trees lots of them..in a hot country like ours nothing compares to a bench under the shade of trees…here we tend to grow bushes shrubs..Islamabadl needs healthy trees..fix the termite and catclaw infestation..that’s destroying all trees. Most gardens need alot of upkeep…while trees help shelter animals and people
What is currently more important, Wheat Flour or a Grand Garden for Parliamentarians?
And how can Chairman, CDA ignore the rest of the incomplete roads and other projects of public interest in the capital?
IMF should take note of such luxurious stupidities when the country is passing through one of the worst economic crises.
We shall never LEARN.
Plant shady trees, not miniature palms or dried, dead date palms.
CDA should be focused on water shortage issues in Islamabad and the water tankers increasing prices day by day
CDA should spend money in ghori town for electricity problem. give money to iesco to provide basic facility to ghori town peoples. Don’t waist our tax for rich people garden
It seems like CDA chairman is acting on the whims of self- pleasing corrupt politicians to get a good share in future! Areas like D-Chowk are already too fancy to get any more dev. The funds which come from poor people’s taxes should be redirected on real prob of Isb!
Keep focus on the parks those are already in miserable condition.
Work on Margallah zoo. Bring back the elephant Kawan.
Almost in every park children’s slides are broken. Every day children get injuries.
Its cheap idea to buy a Land, just put some trees in it and some slides and show it a big project.
Just carry on development project through out the year. Just 14 August or 23 March aren’t our national days. Celebrate everyday as our National day if you have got some idea to facilitate the public.
Yet another step to please our politicians. Is it really needed to throw such a massive amount in an area that is already cluttered with fancy stuff??
Ganagal khanapul these stop need greener when ever I crossed from there I notice people under direct sun shade in summer respected CDA chairman notice plz
Please come out of the shell of D-Chowk/Parliament and making of show pieces. Please explore the pathetic condition of lost “I” sectors with respect to water, greenery, roads, sanitation etc. Whole Islamabad should be treated equally.
