Proposal for Chrysanthemum Show in Chandigarh gets finance panel nod

The Finance & Contract Committee (F&CC) of the Municipal Corporation, Chandigarh, held a meeting here today under Mayor Harpreet Kaur Babla, which was attended by MC Commissioner Amit Kumar, Special Commissioner Pardeep Kumar and other committee members.

One of the key agenda items discussed and approved was the proposal to organise the 38th Chrysanthemum Show 2025 at the Terraced Garden, Sector 33, Chandigarh, during the second or third week of December through sponsors. The flower 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 December 13 to 15.

This year the MC has proposed a larger-scale celebrations 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 MC has resolved to organise 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 celebrations on a grand scale.
