New Delhi: The Central government on Saturday renamed the Mughal Gardens in New Delhi’s Rashtrapati Bhavan to Amrit Udyan in line with the theme of ‘Amrit Mahotsav’ being observed to mark 75 years of India’s Independence.
“On the occasion of the celebrations of 75 years of Independence as ‘Azadi ka Amrit Mahotsav’, the President of India has given a common name to the Rashtrapati Bhavan gardens as Amrit Udyan,” said Navika Gupta, deputy press secretary to President Droupadi Murmu.
Amrit Udayan will be inaugurated by President Murmu on January 29. The garden will be open for public viewing from January 31 to March 26.
The garden is generally open for around a month – February to March – when flowers are in full bloom.
Besides the two-month window that has now been made available for the public, the government also plans to keep the garden open for viewing by special groups, such as farmers and differently-abled.
