UP Government Unveils Revitalization Plan For Lucknow’s Janeshwar Mishra Park

The Yogi Adityanath government has initiated a comprehensive revitalization effort for Janeshwar Mishra Park in Lucknow. Following Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath’s vision, the Lucknow Development Authority (LDA) has outlined a plan to develop a dedicated sports arena within the park, with a budget of Rs 10.16 crore.

Located in Gomti Nagar Extension Scheme Part-1A, Janeshwar Mishra Park has lacked specialized sports facilities, a gap keenly felt by visitors. To address this, the Yogi government has crafted a detailed action plan to enhance the park’s amenities.

The development works at Janeshwar Mishra Park will integrate sports amenities, including cricket and football grounds, along with volleyball and tennis courts. All construction will adhere to environmental protection standards and other crucial guidelines, with a dedicated monitoring mechanism to ensure high quality.

To expedite the development of the sports zone, the LDA has initiated a two-bid process to select an agency responsible for overseeing and executing all related construction activities. This agency will collaborate closely with LDA officials to ensure adherence to all standards, including deadlines and quality benchmarks. The project is targeted for completion within nine months.

Spread across approximately 376 acres at a cost of Rs 168 crore, Janeshwar Mishra Park has modern amenities but has been lacking a dedicated sports arena. The LDA’s construction of a sizable sports arena aims to fill this gap, providing residents of Lucknow and visitors from across India and beyond with opportunities to participate in various sports events.

The development will pave the way for regular sporting activities, enhancing the park’s reputation and popularity. The planned sports facilities will feature state-of-the-art amenities, including modern sprinkler systems, lighting, and other essentials.
