Now, step into Lalbagh at a price
Bangalore, Nov 6,Deccan Herald News Service :

To improve the security standards inside Lalbagh, Suvarna Karnataka Udyanavana Pratisthana had decided to charge walkers an annual fee, two years ago.

Now the decision will soon be implemented at Lalbagh, where walkers will have to pay an annual fee of Rs 200, and Rs 100 for children, to use the premises of Lalbagh.

Horticulture Department Director N  Jayaram said, “The introduction of the fee was not to make revenue but only to improve the security level inside Lalbagh. We will provide identity cards to every walker and he or she will have to show the card to enter Lalbagh,” he said.

Over 3,000 walkers use Lalbagh for their morning walks.  Identity card can be availed by producing an address proof, a photograph and paying a fee of Rs 200.

If muslims can raise their kids right then this would have never happened. Muslims should be charged special fee. They have proven to be a headache to the countries where ever they are present
