Vatika is most popular, lively and frequently visited place of Panchkula. Every person loves to spend their weekend at this most prominent spot of the city. Over the weekends the parking lots are completely full. The residents from nearby cities like Chandigarh, Kalka and Pinjore have similar passion for this spot. The fountains at “City Fountain” area with colorful lightening enhance this perfect awesome scenery. People are commonly seen doing their evening walk here. Even kids have a jolly good time in its play section with toy train, swings along with the parents cheering them. In its vicinity it has one restaurant named “Wah Delhi” and a small “Dollar Shop” on one side and a big shopping complex “Vishal Mart” on the other. The famous chain of restaurants known as “Hot Millions” used to do a brisk business when they were running their fast food chain from ‘Vatika’.
Unfortunately, all these things are past now. Haryana Government had spent crores of rupees to develop this park. But suddenly it seems like government has lost all its interest. The garden nowadays has altogether deserted except some young couples sitting there at some place or other in the park. Even the restaurants “Hot Millions” and “Wah Delhi” have closed their outlets. Fountains are not in working condition most of the times. The stagnant water in the fountain makes it full of dirt and silt. This all implies that as if the Haryana Government as well as HUDA (Haryana Urban Development Authority) has lost their interests completely to take care of this city’s center beauty. Even no light of hope is seen from our Honorable Union Minister of Tourism Kum. Selija, also elected as MP from Panchkula. After winning the elections, she is also least bothered about the current situation of the city's beauty. In these situations, we can’t expect any new project from her side when old projects are given such a rude treatment.
Hopefully, government of Haryana, honorable tourism minister Kum Selija, and HUDA will do something in near time to maintain this center beauty of Panchkula.
of course they will maintain it......... the way it is shown here hahaaaahahhahaa
