Need to improve some other facilities like exercise equipment . Slippy running track. If I forget this disadvantage it's nice.. good environment for jogging.

It's been an enthralling life experience, as I started finishing my running goals at the city forest. It's a vast, expanding stretches with several turns, that delights me the ecosystem's bliss. I recently finished a half marathon within the city forest itself. More significantly, it's location being adjacent to the District Magistrate's office, gives another thrill to an upsc aspirant like me. The forest helps me unite passion for running and goal of clearing UPSC civil services like nothing else...❣️
