MODEL ANSWER:

India is a developing country and the government is providing many amenities to the citizens Recently the government has stressed on the need for public toilets, cleanliness and education. In our city there were many open areas that were unused and unattended The local administration of…..town has developed these into open or outdoor gyms. There are exercise machines that are very simple to use and easy to maintain. Senior citizens do not have to go far for physiotherapy and exercise. The women do not sit on the benches and chat instead they exercise This facility has added value to the health and also made good use of public land. Around these parks we can see some hawkers selling healthy food like milk Juice and cottage cheese. These have made areas around them very proactive and full of life. This endeavour made by our local administration is catching up in the neighbouring towns as well. Earlier these dirty corners were full of accumulated garbage and were breeding grounds for germs. Many mischievous elements used to sit and play cards here but now the parks are full of positive energy. I would say the creation of open gyms have not only improved physical health but also contributed for mental peace and beautification.
