With a history of more than 50 years, Nehru Park was the only garden in the city to have a toy train and the facility will be resumed in the days to come. Earlier, it was named BISCO-PARK and a string of food joints around its premises attracted a large number of people. While no entry fee was charged from the citizens initially, the authorities have now planned to introduce a small fee and passes will be provided to regular morning and evening joggers.
