Celebrating 60 years of Nehru Park: a modern Indian masterpiece
After an extended rainy season that had kept regulars away, Nehru Park in Delhi is once again bustling with activity. With the skies clear, walkers, joggers, and yoga enthusiasts have returned to this iconic park, established in 1965. In one quiet corner, a reader sits under the shade of a tree, immersed in a novel, adding to the park’s serene charm.
Spanning 75 acres, Nehru Park was developed at a cost of Rs 20 lakh in 1965. Prime Minister Lal Bahadur Shastri laid its foundation on February 25, 1965, and it opened to the public that September. As the park celebrates its 60th anniversary in 2025, it remains a testament to India’s post-independence vision for public green spaces.
