Footpath Faltugiri!!

It begins with Mr. Kalmadi beautifying the city in preparation for the Commonwealth Youth Games. Our Pashan Sus road, already a 'development' hotspot, got quite a facelift. Our long pending, halfway through road widening was completed, a fragment of the vast open expanse on one side of the road was utilised. The undivided road was wide enough for a good helipad, excluding the footpaths, wide enough for three mes to lie down comfortably, head to toe. One side has been developed into a wonderful promenade with a grass lawn running along the footpath for a good half kilometer. Lovely lamps adorn the edges of the footpath and young peepul saplings line the lawn along with other multicoloured leafy plants. There are sophesticated benches and garbage bins at an interval of 5 metres.

The morning sees the sprinklers coming on and the golden sunshine shimmering on the wet grass. Walkers, joggers, cyclists are abundant. The evening brings in families, friends, couples, individuals, camera bearers, dog walkers to enjoy sunset and the time beyond with a not-so-uncommon treat to kulfi or chana or their own picnic baskets! Well, here's showing you how we make the best of it all-

We sit on the benches and
  • Chat
  • Debate
  • Sing
  • Joke
  • Act stupid!


Now you know what I mean.



We love our Footpath!
