WISHLIST 2020

Marking the end of the teen-years, 2020 holds a lot of promise for all of us. Here’s all that the city wishes for this year.

With the start of January 2020, it’s the time of the year when we ask citizens of Vizag to come up with all that they wish for this year. As Team Yo! Vizag took to its social media to pose this question, here is what people across the city came up with. We hope that atleast a few of these wishes come true.

1 MORE TREES AND GREENERY

Vizag’s green cover was something we always took for granted, right up till the Cyclone Hudhud gave us a rude shock. A large percentage of our green cover was simply wiped out overnight. While this did give rise to the greening drive, and we realise its importance more than before, there’s still a long way to go, for the city to have sufficient lung space. Also, the wide-spreading concrete jungle is eating up our green spaces and encroaching upon land that rightly belongs to wildlife. Here’s hoping that 2020 will not only see more trees being planted but will also mark the start of more eco-consciousness among people.

2 FOOD FOR THE SOUL

As a city known for its love of food, we got super excited when the outlets of KFC, McDonald’s and Burger King opened up. However, there’s still a long list of food chains that the city wants. Eager for more options, outlets that the city’s foodies await include Starbucks, Taco Bell, Korean Restaurants and Krispy Kreme. And yes, adding a couple of eat streets in this delicious mix would satiate our appetites this year.
