MULTAN: The district government has decided to revamp city parks with installing attractive features to inspire visitors especially families.

This was stated by Commissioner Bilal Butt while presiding over a meeting held on Saturday. First of all, it had decided to improve Shah Shamsh Park, with building musical foundations, expansion of inside lake and launching paddle boat into the water. A tuck-shop and cafeteria will also be acquired during renovation process, the commissioner remarked.

He directed the PHA authority to devise renovation action plan for the rest of parks in a minimum time frame and submit him for smooth implementation after a detailed review upon them.
