Lack of maintenance in Ramna Park

The other day, during my evening walk in Ramna Park, an old and dry heavy leaf of a coconut tree fell on my head, causing serious injury with profuse bleeding. I had to rush to a clinic for emergency treatment.

Those of us who partake in regular morning or evening walks there have already noticed that nowadays there is no maintenance of the park. The old branches and leaves from the trees clutter the walkways, making it difficult to walk. Weeds and shrubs are not cleared or trimmed periodically to keep the park clean and to maintain its beauty. I would like to urge the concerned authority to look into the matter and take necessary steps to keep the park's environment clean and safe.
