Guwahati: A wasteland in the busy Maligaon area in Assam's Guwahati city has been transformed into a park by the Northeast Frontier Railway (NFR), a statement said.
The newly-constructed Sirisha Rail Udyan was previously a wasteland in BG Colony, which has been transformed from a foul-smelling area to an open space for leisure, it said.
"NFR reclaimed the piece of wasteland and constructed a park for the local community. The park is spread over almost 5,500 sq m area with modern facilities like walking and running tracks for all age groups," it said.
