Chandigarh not to host rose fest this year in the wake of covid-19

The Rose Festival of Chandigarh will be postponed this year due to safety concerns caused by the pandemic. Therefore, neither a children’s show, musical performance, or any other event or activity that may draw a large crowd is planned. As part of this effort, symbolically, those who supported the society during COVID times, such as health care workers, doctors, and sweepers, will be recognized.

A decision was made after council members raised concerns at the General House of the Municipal Corporation about the event. According to Chandigarh Municipal Corporation officials, a specified amount will be retained in the Rose Garden improvement project. It will be decided by a committee how many and what type of amenities the garden can offer after the issue is studied.

The Authorities want to plan 2022’s rose fest

In Chandigarh, the Rose Festival is one of the top events. Chandigarh is well known for the variety of roses that can be seen in its Rose Garden, which has a thriving botanic industry. Chandigarh’s Rose Garden occupies 30 acres of land, and a festival is held here every year to showcase the beautiful flowers that bloom in Chandigarh’s garden. You can see tea roses, climber roses, green roses, miniature roses, and many more rose varieties in the rose fest.

Since it is the prime festival, the civic body wants to plan this.

2.5 crore has been spent by the Authorities in the past three years.

In the three years since the Rose Festival was launched, the Chandigarh Tourism Department has spent nearly Rs 2.5 crores. The Chandigarh Municipal Corporation has also spent money on it despite claiming a financial crisis. Rose Festival is held at Rose Garden by the MC, while Leisure Valley is by the tourism department.

Conclusion

Every person’s life has been affected by the Coronavirus pandemic. One of them is the cancellation of the rose festival in 2021.
