"I'm extremely happy to see that we are able to gift the 4 acres of open space to the public by converting it into an edutainment theme park. At present, there are four existing structures that will be converted into the virtual reality 3D show on themes of space, ocean, and environment," said Satam.
Apart from the three pavilions of space, ocean, and environment, the plan also includes the children's play and entertainment area, and a semi-covered amphitheater, among others.
"We also ensuring that such large open spaces in the city are usurped by the builders and land grabbers. But we are throwing open to the public in a positive infrastructure project," added Satam.
