New Delhi: The Delhi Development Authority’s Palaash Mahotsav 2026, which witnessed strong public participation across four locations from February 14 to 16, has entered its concluding chapter at Asita along the Yamuna floodplains.
On the occasion, a newly developed cycle track was also opened by Lieutenant-Governor VK Saxena, reinforcing the focus on eco-friendly mobility and meaningful public use of restored green spaces.
The festival was earlier held at Baansera (Birsa Munda Chowk), Ashoka Garden in Ashok Vihar, Lala Hardayal Park in Jasola and Smriti Van in Narela. Over three days, residents turned up in large numbers to experience curated floral displays, cultural programmes and interactive activities centred on nature and community engagement.

Officials said the concluding phase brings together expansive floral installations, thematic performances and family-oriented activities, marking the arrival of spring in the Capital.
Organised annually since 2023, the festival has grown into a multi-location public event aimed at strengthening citizens’ connection with Delhi’s parks.
