A blood donation drive was held at the Cuffe Parade Residents Association (CPRA) Greens garden, a park in the swank SoBo neighbourhood, on June 12. Days after the drive, which locals say got a good response, the BMC has issued a notice to the CPRA. The one-page communique dated June 15 said in its subject line that this was about ‘organising programmes in the garden without permission’.
It said at the outset that a complaint has been received “by this office with reference to a blood donation camp held in the CPRA garden, in Cuffe Parade on June 12, 2022”. The notice read, “The said garden is given to your association on adoption basis for maintenance, subject to certain terms and conditions.”
