Burial grounds to be better designed with more facilities - The Hindu
The civic body has planned for landscaping and habitat conservation at burial grounds in the city.
Landscaping designs will be selected for burial grounds in neighbourhoods such as Velangadu (Anna Nagar), Mylapore, Moolakothalam, Nungambakkam, Virugambakkam and Kasimedu.
“The landscaped burial grounds will have decorative elements and a geometrically-regular pattern. We will balance the need for trees and burial markers.
