The return of cicadas to Mahatma Gandhi Park, Manikonda in good numbers is a strong sign of ecological recovery and improving biodiversity. Their long calls are more than just noise they reflect the presence of healthier trees, better soil conditions, and a more natural urban habitat. Cicadas remind us that when ecosystems begin to heal, even the smallest species become powerful indicators of change. #SaveMGPark @CMC_Offcl @MC_Cyberabad @ZC_SLP @DCNarsingi @jayesh_ranjan @TSBiodiversity @MyManikonda_ @Walk4Health @vchangeu @Comm_HYDRAA

Despite prior reporting of the reconstruction activity, no effective action has been taken. This silence and inaction only strengthens the impression that officials are choosing to look the other way under pressure from a political lobby. If such violations are ignored even after being brought to notice in advance, it sends a very dangerous message that public park encroachments can continue unchecked. The authorities must not play blindfolded to this illegal activity. Immediate action is required now, otherwise, responsibility for allowing this encroachment to continue will rest with those who failed to act despite clear prior information and reporting. Multiple violations are taking place in Mahatma Gandhi Park in Manikonda, as the reconstruction of the illegal and unauthorized shed is being carried out during peak park hours, while children are playing nearby and senior citizens are seated close to the construction area. This clearly shows that the lobby is more focused on rebuilding the demolished shed than respecting public safety or the well-being of park users. What was the urgency to permit such activity during park hours? Has any official from @CMC_Offcl @DCNarsingi given free access to the culprits to rebuild the shed again inside the park? This raises serious concerns about accountability, public safety, and the blatant misuse of a public space. The shed was demolished by Municipal officials on 25th July, 2025 and again on 11th April, 2026 yet the unauthorized saga continues! Why is UBD wing not acting on it. @MC_Cyberabad @DCManikondaGHMC #SaveMGParkManikonda @Walk4Health @vchangeu @Comm_HYDRAA @GummallaSrijana

Cooking massive meals with open wood fires in Mahatma Gandhi Park, Manikonda turning our biodiversity hot spot into a barren event ground. With @CMC_Offcl own support hoardings up, this ecosystem destruction demands immediate action from the Urban Biodiversity Wing @DCNarsingi These are happening via oral nods by officials, political lobbying, and influence to protect personal pride, not civic or ecological interest. This must stop for true park protection let's protect our green lungs before they're just a memory! @MC_Cyberabad We request @CMC_Offcl to: * Take strict disciplinary action against the organizers, * Impose hefty fines to recover the cost of ecological and infrastructural damage, and * Clearly ban any future events, commercial collection, or unauthorized activities inside the park. @GummallaSrijana @ZC_SLP @SanduguSan61630 @jayesh_ranjan #SaveMGPark #MahatmaGandhiParkManikonda #MGPARKManikonda @Walk4Health @CollectorRRD @vchangeu @ManaManikonda @ManikondaM88292 @AlashyamNaveen @shrikantkovela @ajaymaryala

It is deeply distressing to witness the continued misuse of Mahatma Gandhi Park in Manikonda, for private, commercial, and caste based events, despite multiple written and verbal appeals made to the Municipal Commissioner and other officials of Manikonda. Private associations are repeatedly conducting exclusive events, collecting money from attendees, and using the park as a commercial and community platform for their association benefits beyond its lawful purpose. The aftermath of these events leaves the park littered with garbage, damaged flora, sound pollution and polluted air, severely compromising the eco-balance and biodiversity that the park once proudly sustained. Mahatma Gandhi Park is home to over 50 bird species and numerous micro-ecosystems, all of which are suffering due to unchecked human interference. @ManikondaMc #FACRWA @CollectorRRD @cdmatelangana @vchangeu @ACLB_Rangareddy @Comm_HYDRAA @tksreedevi @SwachSurvekshan @SwachhBharatGov @MoHUA_India @MyManikonda_ @GHMCOnline @CommissionrGHMC @TSBiodiversity #Manikonda #Hyderabad #Telangana #SaveParks @ManaManikonda @ourmanikonda @ManikondaM88292 @MyManikonda_ #SaveMGPark

Political flavored events are gaining easy access to public parks largely due to the influence and connections of event organizers with local political groups, which often override civic norms and community interests. @ManikondaMc #FACRWA @CollectorRRD @cdmatelangana @vchangeu @ACLB_Rangareddy @Comm_HYDRAA @tksreedevi @SwachSurvekshan @SwachhBharatGov @MoHUA_India @MyManikonda_ @GHMCOnline @CommissionrGHMC @TSBiodiversity #Manikonda #Hyderabad #Telangana #SaveParks @ManaManikonda @ourmanikonda @ManikondaM88292 #AlaiBalai @KTRBRS @BRSparty @BJP4Telangana @revanth_anumula @INCTelangana #PoliticsToday #PoliticsinPark @KarthikIndrAnna

Guardians of Green: Transforming MG Park With unwavering dedication and heart, the volunteers of MG Park step up as true stewards of nature. Every hour spent, every sapling cared for, and every cleanup drive reflects their deep commitment to nurturing our park’s ecosystem. These before and after moments are proof of what community spirit can achieve restoring beauty, promoting health, and building a sustainable future for all. Together, we’re not just cleaning a park we’re cultivating hope, resilience, and pride in every corner of MG Park. #MahatmaGandhiPark @ManikondaMc @cdmatelangana #FACRWA @CollectorRRD @vchangeu @ACLB_Rangareddy @Comm_HYDRAA @tksreedevi @SwachSurvekshan @SwachhBharatGov @MoHUA_India @MyManikonda_ @GHMCOnline @CommissionrGHMC @TSBiodiversity @ActivistTeja @sudhakarudumula @zoo_bear @vinay_vangala @BhavreenMK @pargaien @SajjanarVC @revanth_anumula @KTRBRS @BJP4Telangana #Manikonda #Hyderabad #Telangana #SaveParks @ManaManikonda @ManikondaMc #GuardiansOfGreen #VolunteerPower #SaveMGPark #EcoChampions #beforeafter

Swachhata Hi Seva 2025 at Mahatma Gandhi Park: A Masterclass in Reel Cleaning. Bravo to Manikonda Municipality and RWAs! Over 20 staff, residents, and officials gathered with perfect smiles, brooms in hand, and cameras rolling. The reels looked flawless Gandhiji himself would’ve been impressed… if only cleaning on camera could make garbage disappear in reality! Sadly, the truth: *Garbage piles from Bathukamma (21st Sept-2025) still rotting in the park. * Diapers, plastic bottles, and snack covers decorating the kids play zone * Sitting Benches as Dump zones! Clearly, cleanliness for Manikonda Municipality means sweeping for the selfie, not for the citizens. MG Park today is less a tribute to Mahatma Gandhi than a stage for “Reel Gandhi”, where swachhata is performed, not practiced. Dear officials next time, please clean the park, not for your social media timelines. Until then, we residents will survive by calling Mahatma Gandhi Park what it has become: ‘Mahatma Gandhi Function & Reel Palace’. #SaveMGPark #MahatmaGandhiParkManikonda #MGPARKManikonda #ATRWA #MahatmaGandhiPark @ManikondaMc @cdmatelangana #FACRWA @CollectorRRD @vchangeu @ACLB_Rangareddy @Comm_HYDRAA @tksreedevi @SwachSurvekshan @SwachhBharatGov @MoHUA_India @MyManikonda_ @GHMCOnline @CommissionrGHMC @TSBiodiversity @ActivistTeja @sudhakarudumula @zoo_bear @vinay_vangala @BhavreenMK @pargaien @SajjanarVC @revanth_anumula @KTRBRS @BJP4Telangana #Manikonda #Hyderabad #Telangana #SaveParks @ManaManikonda @ManikondaM88292

In-spite of repeated requests and clear evidence of rule violations at MG Park, Manikonda municipal officials continue to remain helpless, hopeless, and indifferent to the rampant misuse of public space. Organizers recently allowed to burn large quantities of wood for cooking over 12 hours inside the park, leading to severe smoke pollution, and have irresponsibly allowed to wash used utensils in the park, leaving behind foul smells that make the environment unbearable for regular walkers. It is unacceptable that even after four days, sanitation has not been addressed and the organizers, who are freely collecting "donations" in the park, are allowed to profit while ignoring basic civic duties. Such ongoing neglect not only disrupts community health and well-being but also erodes public trust in local governance. Immediate and firm action is required from Manikonda Municipality to enforce park rules, penalize violators, and restore the park for the benefit of all residents. #SaveMGPark #MahatmaGandhiParkManikonda #MGPARKManikonda #ATRWA #MahatmaGandhiPark @ManikondaMc @cdmatelangana @CollectorRRD @vchangeu @ACLB_Rangareddy @Comm_HYDRAA @tksreedevi @SwachSurvekshan @SwachhBharatGov @GHMCOnline @CommissionrGHMC @TSBiodiversity @ActivistTeja @sudhakarudumula @zoo_bear @vinay_vangala @BhavreenMK @pargaien @revanth_anumula @KTRBRS @BJP4Telangana #Manikonda #Hyderabad #Telangana #SaveParks

Similar negligence and disregard by ATRWA were observed during the recent Independence Day celebrations at Professor Jayashankar Park, Alkapur Township, Manikonda. The park environment was left in a deplorable state, resembling a dump yard even days after the event, causing serious inconvenience to the community and damaging the public space meant for all residents. @ManikondaMc @cdmatelangana @tksreedevi x.com/Walk4Health/status/195…

Why has Manikonda Municipality failed to act against ATRWA despite multiple complaints about their damaging events in MG Park and now in Professor Jayashankar Park, Alkapur Township Manikonda? Even after 9 days of celebrating Independence Day, bins are still overflowing with food waste, plastic water bottles and discarded plates, posing health risks to families and children. How were ATRWA allowed to display donation boards with UPI QR codes and collect money in a public park was there any official permission? Residents demand immediate action: penalize groups that ignore civic responsibilities and ensure our parks are managed for community well-being, not private interests. Prompt response from the Manikonda Municipality is expected. #SaveMGPark #Manikonda #Hyderabad #parks #ATRWA #MahatmaGandhiPark #TelanganaRising2047 @ManikondaMc @CollectorRRD @ACLB_Rangareddy @vchangeu @PrlsecyMAUD @cdmatelangana @Comm_HYDRAA @tksreedevi @SwachSurvekshan @SwachhBharatGov @GHMCOnline @ActivistTeja @sudhakarudumula @vinay_vangala @BhavreenMK @revanth_anumula @KTRBRS @BJP4Telangana @KVishReddy #MLAPrakashGoud @iamkondasurekha @down2earthindia @lifeindia2016 @sravanijourno @SahuSKNT @ManaManikonda @SitaramDhulipa1 @THECCMANIKONDA @shrikantkovela @AlashyamNaveen @ManikondaM88292 @sudharanimb

Despite multiple requests and repeated visits to the Municipal office Manikonda even direct meetings with the Municipal Commissioner and Town Planning Officer, the authorities remain unresponsive to the unauthorized reconstruction of the steel structure in Mahatma Gandhi Park, Manikonda. The Alkapur Township Residential Welfare Association (ATRWA) continues to build and maintain this structure in support of year-long events, backed by political parties and real estate builders. This blatant disregard for public complaints has resulted in: Obstruction of significant park space, restricting free movement and enjoyment for visitors. Ongoing inconvenience to walkers, children, and senior citizens who depend on the park as a community resource. A dangerous precedent of unchecked, politically motivated encroachment on precious public green space. We urge the Municipal Authorities to fulfill their duty and take immediate action to restore public access, safety, and the sanctity of MG Park. Ignoring such clear violations erodes trust in governance and damages the community’s collective heritage. #SaveMGPark #MahatmaGandhiParkManikonda #MGPARKManikonda #ATRWA #MahatmaGandhiPark @Walk4Health @ManikondaMc @cdmatelangana @CollectorRRD @vchangeu @ACLB_Rangareddy @Comm_HYDRAA @tksreedevi @SwachSurvekshan @SwachhBharatGov @GHMCOnline @CommissionrGHMC @TSBiodiversity @ActivistTeja @sudhakarudumula @zoo_bear @vinay_vangala @BhavreenMK @pargaien @revanth_anumula @KTRBRS @BJP4Telangana #Manikonda #Hyderabad #Telangana #SaveParks

@Comm_HYDRAA MG park in Manikonda is a vital public green space, yet it's being treated as a private function hall, depriving the community of its rightful access and ecological benefits. Protecting this park is essential to preserving our environment, promoting public health, and ensuring fair use for all residents. Immediate action and awareness are crucial to reclaim and safeguard this shared space. #SaveMGPark

How is it that Manikonda Municipality can quickly allocate so many resources for increasing iron structure height of existing Yoga shed, tree cutting, and debris clearance in MG Park especially when these actions support unauthorized Ganesh celebrations in public park? When citizens and volunteers request basic garbage removal, it takes months. Is this sudden urgency out of fear of local politicians or is it because priorities are set by RWAs allied with political interests? Public parks are supposed to serve the entire community, not select groups. Please clarify are Manikonda’s parks being run for public welfare by municipal officials, or have they come under control of RWAs and political lobbies? Despite repeated requests to remove the unauthorized iron structure in MG Park which is fully blocking benches and considerable portion of open area, Manikonda Municipality has failed to act for over a month. If officials continue to neglect their duties, we will escalate this issue to higher state authorities and hold those responsible fully accountable for their inaction and negligence. #SaveMGPark #Manikonda #Hyderabad #parks #ATRWA #MahatmaGandhiPark #TelanganaRising2047 @ManikondaMc @CollectorRRD @ACLB_Rangareddy @vchangeu @PrlsecyMAUD @cdmatelangana @Comm_HYDRAA @tksreedevi @SwachSurvekshan @SwachhBharatGov @GHMCOnline @ActivistTeja @sudhakarudumula @vinay_vangala @BhavreenMK @revanth_anumula @KTRBRS @BJP4Telangana @KVishReddy #MLAPrakashGoud @iamkondasurekha @down2earthindia @lifeindia2016 @Bachanjeet_TNIE @KonathamDileep @PTI_News @ani_digital @TV9Telugu @tv5newsnow @PIBHyderabad @TelanganaToday @ntdailyonline @the_hindu @timesofindia @andhraprabha_ @ANDHRAJYOTI @hmtvnewslive @TheSiasatDaily @v6velugu @sravanijourno @SahuSKNT @ManaManikonda @SitaramDhulipa1 @THECCMANIKONDA @shrikantkovela

Despite repeated complaints about the destruction of nature in MG Park, Manikonda the municipal authorities have failed to take meaningful action. Now, Alkapoor Shri Ganesh Mandal organizers are planning even more damaging activities, including large-scale cooking inside the park and digging a pond for idol immersion. This is unacceptable especially when Manikonda Municipality is spending multiple lakhs of rupees to prepare safe, designated immersion arrangements at Neknampur Lake pond. Manikonda Municipal officials must immediately inform the MG Park Ganesh Mandal organizers to use these official facility instead of further harming the park’s ecosystem. There are still over 30 hours left for authorities to intervene and prevent this disaster. Protecting our green spaces and using designated resources is not just efficient it’s essential for maintaining public health, environmental responsibility, and legal compliance. #SaveMGPark #Manikonda #Hyderabad #parks #ATRWA #MahatmaGandhiPark #TelanganaRising2047 @ManikondaMc @CollectorRRD @ACLB_Rangareddy @vchangeu @PrlsecyMAUD @cdmatelangana @Comm_HYDRAA @tksreedevi @SwachSurvekshan @SwachhBharatGov @GHMCOnline @ActivistTeja @sudhakarudumula @vinay_vangala @BhavreenMK @revanth_anumula @KTRBRS @BJP4Telangana @KVishReddy #MLAPrakashGoud @iamkondasurekha @down2earthindia @lifeindia2016 @sravanijourno @SahuSKNT @ManaManikonda @SitaramDhulipa1 @THECCMANIKONDA @shrikantkovela #ATRWA @AlashyamNaveen @sudharanimb @pargaien @krishna_ifs @swachhhyd @chikikothari @IndianGems_ @CommissionrGHMC @TelanganaFD @TelanganaFDC @Warriormomsin #GaneshChaturthi2025

True celebration honors nature, but the way festivals are celebrated in our parks today deeply harms the very environment we cherish. In MG Park, huge trees have been cut down both inside and outside the park exclusively to install light poles and series lights for Ganesh celebrations. When asked, those cutting the trees openly admitted they lacked permission from municipal or forest authorities, acting only under directives from a local political leader, yet with resources supplied by Manikonda Municipality itself. This is not just disregard, but a disastrous act with lasting consequences for our green cover. Importantly, none of the streets or other parks in the area have been subjected to such aggressive tree cutting or extensive pruning activities; the tree felling in MG Park was done solely to accommodate the Ganesh festival, making it an unprecedented and targeted assault on our local ecology. Cutting trees simply to hang lights for a celebration is an act that cannot be justified or accepted, no matter the occasion. It’s clear municipal officials are now mere spectators silent as ecological assets are destroyed. As long as the residents of Alkapur Township and Manikonda do not raise their voices, these activities will continue unchecked. If we remain passive, we risk losing our parks' greenery entirely, transforming these spaces into privileged playgrounds for local RWAs aligned with political groups, not sanctuaries for the entire community. It’s time to protect our parks for well being of residents, stop littering, and demand accountability to ensure our green spaces endure for future generations, rather than become casualties of political convenience. #SaveMGPark #Manikonda #Hyderabad #parks #ATRWA #MahatmaGandhiPark #TelanganaRising2047 @ManikondaMc @CollectorRRD @ACLB_Rangareddy @vchangeu @PrlsecyMAUD @cdmatelangana @Comm_HYDRAA @tksreedevi @SwachSurvekshan @SwachhBharatGov @GHMCOnline @ActivistTeja @sudhakarudumula @vinay_vangala @BhavreenMK @revanth_anumula @KTRBRS @BJP4Telangana @KVishReddy #MLAPrakashGoud @iamkondasurekha @down2earthindia @lifeindia2016 @sravanijourno @SahuSKNT @ManaManikonda @SitaramDhulipa1 @THECCMANIKONDA @shrikantkovela #ATRWA @GretaThunberg @AlashyamNaveen @sudharanimb @pargaien @krishna_ifs @swachhhyd @chikikothari @IndianGems_ @CommissionrGHMC @TelanganaFD @TelanganaFDC

Manikonda Municipality must immediately take decisive action against the organizers of Ganesh Mandal in MG Park for their blatant destruction of green spaces in and around the park. Allowing such reckless activities, including unauthorized tree cutting, sets a dangerous precedent and violates environmental laws and public trust. Municipal officials must enforce strict penalties and restore the damaged greenery without delay, holding all responsible parties fully accountable for their actions. Kindly remove the huge hording at turning point which is completely blocking the view and may lead to accidents. @ManikondaMc @cdmatelangana @tksreedevi @CommissionrGHMC @GHMCOnline @cyberabadpolice
