The Punjab government has banned temporary mechanical swings during Eid-ul-Fitr to prevent accidents and ensure public safety. The decision comes as large crowds are expected at parks, gaming zones, and playgrounds during the festive season. A directive has been issued to all deputy commissioners to enforce the ban across the province.
Strict Safety Measures for Amusement Parks
While temporary swings are prohibited, permanently installed mechanical swings in amusement parks and designated play areas will be allowed. However, these rides must meet strict safety standards before operating.
According to the official notification, amusement parks must obtain fitness certificates for their swings. Additionally, deputy commissioners are responsible for verifying compliance and issuing safety verification certificates before allowing operations.
