Move comes after poor response from residents’ welfare associations
With the move to engage residents’ welfare associations in running and maintenance of public parks failing to evoke good response, Tiruchi Corporation has decided to outsource caretakers and gardeners for them.
Until 2017, the city had a limited number of parks. Ibrahim Park on West Boulevard Road, Gandhi Park in Srirangam, Parangiri Velupillai Park in Cantonment were among the few that served the people, particularly elders and children.

The Karnataka government has drafted a comprehensive master plan for the integrated development of Kukke Subrahmanya temple, the State’s highest revenue-generating temple managed by the Hindu Religious Institutions and Charitable Endowments Department. The redevelopment initiative is estimated to cost around ₹254 crore and aims to enhance infrastructure and facilities for devotees.
