What’s In It?

The move of setting up North India’s first dog park came after an idea was floated by VP Singh Badnore, the governor of Punjab and the administrator of Chandigarh. He had requested the civic body authority to explore this idea a few days ago. Badnore approached municipal commissioner KK Yadav and told him to work on a dog park in Chandigarh. It’s interesting to note that North India has its own luxury pet abode, Critterati in Gurugram.

The project is stated to come up in the southern part of the city as per the Chandigarh municipal corporation. However, the exact location and area for this project is not yet officially finalized. But according to sources of a reputed news agency, an area in Sector 43 in Chandigarh is being assessed. Reports suggest that Mumbai and Hyderabad have such types of dog parks.
