A city character is defined by its public places and not by its private places' We have a huge dearth of public places in Hyderabad. Even if they are they are not being utilized due to the lack of facilities, sports equipment, toilets etc. This trend will lead to huge stress among people' we need more places for relaxation. Thanks to the support of the Genpack, Raahgiri is doing wonders in bringing people such awareness' said one of the participant while enjoying with family.
