Mr Jamil said that in order to complete the renovation work in Rani Bagh before Eidul Fitr, the plantation work should be divided and completed as soon as possible. He appointed retired forest officer Dr Abid as focal person to supervise the plantation work.

In order to change the environment of the zoo, Mr Jamil said that big and small trees should be planted and gardeners should be appointed to look after the plants. He said water should be released in the zoo lake and swings should be installed in Rani Bagh for the children.
