There is no provision to clean the Children's Park in Sector I, New Shimla, as one can see wrappers of chips, chocolates and other garbage dumped in a pit right at the entrance. It is not just children, but the residents too, who come and sit here in the sun during the day. Rather than keeping the place clean, garbage is littered all around. There is a need to place a dustbin in the park, which should be emptied by the Municipal Corporation staff, who clean the roads daily. Parks should be kept clean as everyone uses these. Chandni Sharma, Shimla
Temple faces neglect
The Brij Raj Swami Temple of Lord Krishna in the Nurpur Fort has been neglected by the the successive governments notwithstanding its historical importance and attraction for devotees of the region. This temple has the potential to attract tourists, especially those who visit Kangra. It is the only temple in the world, where the idol of Mira is worshipped alongside Lord Krishna. The state government should formulate a master plan to bring this temple on the tourism map in the hill state. The previous Dhumal government had declared Shri Kishnashatmi festival, celebrated here with immense religious fervour, as the district-level fair. Joginder Kumar, Nurpur
