The public parks in almost each sector of the federal capital are in very poor condition due to negligence on the part of Capital Development Authority (CDA).
Public parks and playgrounds are very essential for promotion of healthy activities among people but unfortunately, the neglected parks in federal capital have failed to attract the visitors.
The residents of Islamabad complained that public parks situated in various areas were in very poor condition. The parks situated in posh sector F-6, F-7, G-6, G-7 and G-8 are in pathetic condition because the jogging tracks are unkempt and swings, lights and benches installed in these parks are broken..
With advent of the evening, revelers and junkies gather at these parks and make a fuss. The families have started to avoid visiting these parks due to poor management.
The residents have demanded the CDA to take notice of the situation and ensure entertainment facilities at these parks.
