Syngenta India to Establish Vande Bharat Park for Community Well-being in Balotra, Rajasthan

One significant step toward promoting community welfare is Syngenta India's announcement that it will be converting a piece of land next to the Balotra Railway station into a park. The Vande Bharat Park, as it is named, is envisioned to provide locals with a refreshing environment, featuring various amenities tailored for their well-being. The Vande Bharat Park is designed to prioritize the health and convenience of its users. It will encompass walking paths, children's swings, an open gym, and lush flower-bearing hedges and trees. These features aim to offer residents a serene space to breathe clean air and engage in physical activities, thereby promoting their overall health and wellness.

Safety and Convenience at the Forefront

To ensure a safe and secure environment, the park will be enclosed with fencing on all sides. Adequate lighting through electricity poles will illuminate the area during evening hours, enhancing safety for visitors. Separate male and female toilet blocks and a drinking water station will further contribute to the comfort and convenience of park-goers.

The foundation stone for Vande Bharat Park was laid by Kailash Chaudhary, MP Barmer-Jaisalmer and Minister of State for Agriculture and Farmers Welfare, Government of India. This ceremony marked a significant milestone towards enriching community life and well-being in Balotra.

Chaudhary commended Syngenta India's Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) efforts, emphasizing the importance of such initiatives in addressing socio-economic challenges. He lauded the company's proactive response during crises, including the pandemic and floods, where it provided vital support to affected communities.
