Lalbagh in Indore to Get Open Theatre
The Lalbagh complex in Indore is getting a big makeover.
The Madhya Pradesh State Tourism Development Corporation is working on several improvements.
They are building an open-air theatre, a tall boundary wall, and installing CCTV cameras.
There will also be new lights, fountains, and paths for walking and cycling.
The goal is to make Lalbagh a safer and more exciting place for people to visit and enjoy cultural activities.
The project started last year and is expected to be finished by next year.
The Lalbagh complex in Indore is undergoing redevelopment, including the addition of an open-air theatre.
The project, initiated in June 2023, aims to enhance the heritage value and infrastructure of the complex.
A boundary wall over 8 feet high and 1.5 kilometres long is being constructed with various designs and materials.
The redevelopment includes CCTV surveillance, external lighting, fountains, a self-defence centre, and dedicated tracks for cycling and walking.
The estimated cost of the project is Rs 2.85 crores, with completion targeted for next year.
