ISLAMABAD, Feb 5: Undue entry charges by the administration have virtually made the Lakeview Park a 'no go area' for the general public.

In fact, the park covered area has been divided into various blocks and on every entry point, they levy separately that is a inconvenient for the visitors hailing from far flung areas.

Alisha, a visitor to the area while talking to APP pointed out that she had to buy tickets time and again for the same picnic point.

She also complained about unhygienic snacks and food items being served in the park at a high cost.

She said that there was no one to check all wrongdoings by the administration which caused a great deal of discomfort to the visitors.
