Sir: Playgrounds form an important part of a healthy environment. Besides providing an open space for all, they are also used for different physical activities. These places have special significance for children.Unfortunately, the provincial metropolis of Sindh lacks such creative spaces. We see children playing in narrow streets, on roads and even on rooftops. These can have dangerous consequences for them. Moreover, those playgrounds we are left with are in a bad state. They hardly serve their purpose. There is need to develop more playgrounds in the city.HASSAN KAMALKarachi
