Delhi plans SPV to convert parks into tourist magnets
• NEW DELHI: Parks and gardens in the Capital are in for a major face-lift with the Delhi government planning to set up a special purpose vehicle (SPV) to convert them into tourist magnets in view of the 2010 Commonwealth Games. A novel proposal to set up a flower and garden society would soon come up before the Delhi Cabinet for its approval to spruce up and re-decorate the parks in keeping with their character. Once given the green signal, the society would be entitled to take a decision to improve the looks of gardens and parks spread across the city.
