According to officials, Noida will spend ₹30 crore on the development of the Vedvan Park. On Tuesday, it issued a tender for horticulture works worth ₹15 crore, and tender for works worth the remaining ₹15 crore, related with civil work, will be issued in the next two days.

“This park will be one of its kinds in the city. It will offer a unique opportunity for residents to enjoy at this park,” said Indu Prakash Singh, officer on special duty of the Noida authority. Officials said that the park will be devoted to Indian scriptures and saints. Sector 78, where the park is going to come up, is home to several newly-built group housings.

Besides the park, the authority is also hiring agencies for other horticulture projects in the city that include development of two wetlands and a small park to beautify the city.

Officials said Vedvan will have different varieties of medicinal plants and traditional Indian fruit bearing trees.

“Families would be able to take their children to these parks and teach them about spiritual and medicinal values of the trees,” said Singh.

Meanwhile, Greater Noida is set to have its first open gym for public use at the City Park on Wednesday, said officials.
