CE Green verge & Community Centre (Salt Lake City)

The Background
The Green Verge in CE Block is being maintained as Sculpture Garden since 1983, pursuant to order of the then competent Authority of Bidhannagar Township. Thus, the Green Verge cannot be compared with other Green Verges of Bidhannagar Municipality.
Sri Tejomoy Chakraborty, the then Administrator of Bidhannagar Township was pleased to hand-over the Green Verge as a Sculpture Garden to CE Block Welfare Association for its proper maintenance, illumination, development, beautification including making lawns, gardens, installation of statues, murals, paintings, carrying out various social and cultural activities for the welfare of local residents, children and preventing occurrence of anti-social activities within the said Sculpture Garden.
Sri Chakraborty appreciated the honest efforts for beautification, installation of statues, murals, paintings etc. in the Sculpture Garden and also admitted that if these efforts of CE Block became successful, then the said spot – Sculpture garden would be an attractive place and would therefore keep the anti-social elements away.
Inauguration of Sculpture Garden
The Sculpture Garden was formally inaugurated by Sri Prasanta Sur, the then MIC for Urban Development & Municipal Affairs on 29th January 1984 in presence of the residents and distinguished guests & eminent personalities.
Some areas of the Green Verge are cared and gardening efforts are being volunteered by the residents of the adjoining plots. Their sincere devotion to the upkeep has made the area clean and beautiful.
A part of the Green Verge has been beautifully cared to make it a Peace Garden. This effort is being extended to beautify the Rest of the Green Verge.
Open air stage – Rabindra Mancha has been restored and renovated for all cultural functions to promote our young talents and a rendezvous for social gatherings.
Proper illumination have been restored by providing mercury vapour lamps at all entrances of the Garden.
Environment awareness placards have been displayed for seeking better support for beautification.
