"The Faridabad administration, at the highest level, has decided to use the Surajkund mela parking for the Games," ACP (Traffic) Raj Kumar told HT on Friday.

"The parking space for about 2,000 vehicles during the Surajkund Mela will be used as Games parking," Rajesh Joon, officer in-charge, Haryana Tourism, Surajkund said.

With this decision, the residents and the developer of Kant Enclave, a private colony, are rejoicing.

It may be mentioned that the district administration was earlier in favour of using Kant Enclave, close to the shooting range — for parking during the Games.
