Bhubaneswar: Chief minister Naveen Patnaik on Friday inaugurated three-storey parking facility at Nandankanan near Odisha capital.

Built with a budget of Rs 3542.79 lakh, the facility has parking space of 5600 square metre in each floor. Total 583 cars can be accommodated in each floor. Besides, 2,000 two-wheelers can be parked in the ground floor of the building.
