Lieutenant Governor V.K. Saxena will today inaugurate the enchanting two-day Palash Mahotsav 2026 at ITO’s Asita Floodplain, bringing spring’s magic to New Delhi. Accompanied by Corporate Affairs MoS Harsh Malhotra and DDA Vice Chairman N. Saravanan Kumar, the DDA Chairman ushers in an event teeming with floral wonders and green innovations.
Highlights include breathtaking flower setups, seasonal plant showcases, and hands-on green exhibits. The lineup brims with horticulture demos, vendor stalls, gastronomic zones, artistic shows, interactive workshops, and community events designed for broad appeal.
As a herald of seasonal shift, the festival captures renewal’s essence, promoting joy, vivid hues, and shared experiences amid nature’s bounty.
Building momentum, Saxena’s February 14 launch of DDA Green Expo at Bansera urged environmental accountability from all. He reflected on the venue’s rapid greening, turning neglect into a beacon for eco-planning.
Social media buzz from the LG framed Bansera as reclaimed triumph, urging deliberations on real-world green strategies. He painted an ideal Delhi: salubrious air everywhere, leafy canopies in every corner, revitalized riversides, and engaged citizenry.
DDA highlighted the expo’s dynamic start, from agreements to visionary talks, priming Delhi for sustainability. Concurrent festivals at Ashoka Garden, Lala Hardayal Park, and Smriti Van weave distinct narratives on nature preservation, green resilience, and collective harmony.
These initiatives collectively advance Delhi’s green agenda, inviting participation in crafting a thriving, eco-conscious urban landscape.
