Bal Bhavan Society president Chikkamma Basavaraj said only five districts have toy trains for children at Bal Bhavans and priority would be accorded to start toy trains at a cost of Rs 1 crore at Bal Bhavans in the other districts.
She told a press conference on Tuesday that all the 30 districts in the state have Bal Bhavans, but most of them do not have amusement facilities for the children. Steps would be taken to provide amusement facilities in all the Bal Bhavans, she added.
Chikkamma said there is no dearth of funds. But there is a site to develop the Bal Bhavans. “If we get six acres of government land, full-fledged Bal Bhavans can be developed,” she said.
She said is touring the state and asking the deputy commissioners to provide sites for the Bal Bhavans.
