LAHORE: Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif is likely to inaugurate the Greater Iqbal Park on Dec 17, said Commissioner Office sources.

It may be noted that the inaugural dates have already been changed one after another in recent past and finally the Punjab government has decided to let it inaugurate by the prime minister.

The Greater Iqbal Park, a project by the Lahore Development Authority (LDA) has already been opened for public to visit.

The newly-built park has also hosted the Chrysanthemum Flowers Show which was shifted from Jilani Park for the first time.

Beautiful moving fountains have also been installed with color lights at Greater Iqbal Park.

Along with renovation of the Minar-e-Pakistan, the project features expansion of the Iqbal Park by including it in the stretch of Circular Road between the park and Lahore Fort.

The 125 acre green oasis is surrounded almost entirely by the old city of Lahore.
