*F&CC approves proposal for 38th Chrysanthemum show 2025 through sponsors*
The Finance & Contract Committee (F&CC) of the Municipal Corporation Chandigarh, held here today under city Mayor Smt. Harpreet Kaur Babla and attended by MC Commissioner Sh. Amit Kumar, IAS, Special Commissioner Sh. Pardeep Kumar, IAS, other committee members Smt. Suman Devi, Sh. Saurabh Joshi, Sh. Jasmanpreet Singh, along with senior officials of the MCC.
One of the key agenda items discussed and approved was the proposal to organize the 38th Chrysanthemum Show 2025 at the Terraced Garden, Sector 33, Chandigarh during the second or third week of December through sponsors. The Chrysanthemum Show is one of the city’s most awaited annual flower festivals, attracting participation from government and semi-government institutions, private growers, and the general public.
Last year, the show was held from 13th to 15th December, where Chrysanthemum pots were displayed for the public. This year, the Municipal Corporation has proposed a larger-scale celebration with competitions, floral quizzes, prize distribution, cultural performances, publicity campaigns, and inaugural and closing ceremonies.
The estimated expenditure for the event is Rs. 21.72 lakh; however, the Corporation has resolved to organize the show without incurring any cost by inviting sponsorships through an Expression of Interest (EOI) from agencies, companies, and individuals. Notices will be published in newspapers to attract potential sponsors and partners, ensuring public participation and festive celebrations on a grand scale.
