The Bhubaneswar Development Authority (BDA) on Sunday organised ‘Park Utsav’ at two parks here with an aim of encouraging healthy lifestyle among the city denizens.
The event, which was held at Indira Gandhi and Madhusudan Das Parks, was held for two hours from 7 am to 9 am.
Notably, it has been decided to organise the Park Utsav for seven consecutive Sundays at different parks in the city which would conclude on March 15.
Cultural events, yoga, art, storytelling, programmes for senior citizens, health checkups and such other activities are part of the Park Utsav.
The BDA engaged a 10-member team in each park during the first event to safeguard park infrastructures.
The Bhubaneswar Municipal Corporation’s ‘Mu Safaiwala’ programme was also included in the event.
