In continuation along with the residents a concept of a City Council was floated a couple of years ago. The formation of the council was a unique concept again probably for the 1st time in the country wherein the primary objective was to involve all the residents in social, cultural and sports activities based on experience. We on introspection have realized that it is very essential for this concept to continue for the future with certain amendments.

Perennially in bloom the gardens are a sight to behold. Aditi Garden, the 25-acre central garden abounds in a variety of trees and neatly laid out lawns. Implementation of waste management and solar energy systems ensure enhancement of the environment.

The now landmark and iconic development of Magarpatta City, a 430 acre truly integrated township off the Pune – Solapur Highway at Hadapsar, on the eastern fringe of Pune City was dreamt to house the hopes and aspirations of citizens, giving them a choice of life unparalleled in quality. The quality of life is a further reflection of what may also be referred to as the standard of living. This is enhanced by well constructed built environment, a serene and beautiful open landscape environment, excellent economic opportunities and state-of-the-art physical and social infrastructure that focus on better living.

While planning, design and actual execution has meticulously brought about this change at the realistic level, there are aspects of life that one may consider as intangible, real, effervescent or even spiritual. Magarpatta City acknowledges these aspects of life and have imbibed a basic tenet of existence that would permeate the township development.

Panch MahaBhootam
Indian traditional belief associates the basic origin of life into five basic elements (Pancha – Five, Maha – Great, Bhootam – Elements), namely:

  1. Water – Jal
  2. Wind – Vaayu
  3. Fire – Agni
  4. Earth – Prithvi
  5. Space – Aakash

Conceptually, all greater organisms and features of our universe are made up of these 5 elements bound in a specific manner to their environment. This concept is elemental to Indian traditional belief, but finds its reflection in other ancient civilised traditions as well, such the Chinese, the American (Red) Indian Tribes, Japanese and more.
Magarpatta identifies the Panchamahabootam as an elemental and integrated feature of such an important development, and through landscaped circles situated at key points in the township (as per their designated directions) celebrates these 5 elements.

Rutu Chakra
In Magarpatta City, life revolves around Rutu Chakra – the Eternal Time Wheel of Nature. The entire city blooms into a rhythmic splash of colours based on the six seasons – Vasant (Spring), Grishma (Summer), Varsha (Monsoon), Sharad (Autumn), Hemant and Shishir (Winter). Each season has certain flowers and trees and shrubs that correspond to it. Some emerge in new season, while the earlier ones withers away. This cycle continues throughout the year in such a manner that some part of the city is always in bloom.

Perennially in bloom the gardens are a sight to behold.
