Greater Noida: The protest of the residents has intensified against the sudden reduction in the timings of the parks in Gaur City One and surrounding societies located in the West. Hundreds of people gathered in a big meeting held at Radha Krishna Park and described the decision to close the park at 7:30 as extremely inconvenient for working people and senior citizens. They say that this change is not only disturbing their daily routine but is also affecting their healthy lifestyle.
Residents said that more than 40,000 people live in Gaur City, while only a few parks are available for walking and exercise. Which includes Radha Krishna Park, Dadadadi Park and the parks of the Club House complex. In such a situation, early closure of parks has become a big problem for the people.
what are people angry about
Residents like Gaurav, Yogesh and Amarjeet say that security personnel not only stop entry after 7:30 pm, but also immediately start evicting people inside. This situation is more worrying because residents pay crores of rupees in the name of maintenance every year. People say that reducing facilities is a violation of their rights.
Everyone is unhappy with the new rules
Local resident Puneet Kohli said that for the last ten years the timing of the park was fixed from 5 am to 11 pm, which was convenient for everyone. Most working people return home only after 8 pm, so they are able to use the park only at night. The new time rule has completely affected their daily routine.
Increasing encroachment near the park
Anita Prajapati said that when events are held in the park, they continue till 1–2 am, at that time no time limit is imposed. If safety is truly an issue, the timing of events should be controlled in the first place, not by reducing park hours for general residents. In the meeting, serious concern was also expressed over the increasing encroachment around the parks and immediate action was demanded from the management.
