“Beautiful chirping of birds, lush green tress, squirrels roaming here and there, morning sunlight reaching the face of the nature, butterflies flying” Right now this all seems to be like a dream to the people of Ahmedabad. But the Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation and the State Forest Department together have planned to create a nature park that will cover 100 acres of land at the site of the Pirana landfill and make this a reality. Under this plan Pirana landfill will be converted into a land full of trees which is currently used as land to just dump garbage. This nature park will be inspired from the famous Indroda Nature Park in Gandhinagar. Municipal commissioner IP Gautam has said that AMC has received a proposal from the State Forest Department regarding the nature park. The main aim behind building this nature park will be to bring the citizens close to the nature, it will also help in reducing the carbon level in Ahmedabad. The park will also have a section where the citizens will be given education about the nature and environment and may even have a small zoo just like Indroda Park. At present only 20 acre of land is free the rest 80 acres is full of garbage. Steps are taken to start the project as fast as possible.

Residence
Basically the residents living around the Pirana landfill are illegal. The demand for shifting the   Pirana dump site which is located on the outskirts of the city, the Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation (AMC) has told that the Gujarat High Court states that the people live illegally living under 500 meters of the landfill and and therefore, they can’t claim for any type protection or relief. The Public Interest Litigation (PIL), on the other hand, alleged that the Pirana landfill site was not designed as per the existing Solid Waste Management rules, 2016, and not an engineered landfill.

There was a PIL filed last year that the people living there claimed to be paying taxes and electricity bills.
