The Capital Development Authority (CDA) is taking concrete measures to provide spectacular recreational, entertainment and amusement facilities for the residents of the federal capital and, for this purpose, the authority is making all out efforts to ensure conservation of historical trees and preservation of natural environment for the next generation.
This was stated by CDA Chairman Engineer Farkhand Iqbal during his visit to Margallah Hills National Park areas, including Gokina village, here on Thursday. The CDA chief said that Islamabad was the only planned city of Pakistan and its green character distinguishes it from other cities of the country as well as from any place on the globe. He said, “Today’s Green Islamabad is the outcome of laborious and consistent efforts of the CDA employees, which they made during the successive regimes by planting, protecting and nourishing the trees in the capital city”. He said the CDA has been playing its due role in providing entertainment facilities to the residents of the city, adding that a large number of visitors from different parts of the country and foreigners also visit Margallah Hills and parks due to its beauty.
