The provincial government of Punjab has also decided to celebrate the Basant festival from 21st February to the 5th of March in Changa Manga. The design also includes the alteration train routes of other destinations to Changa Manga to facilitate those who want to celebrate the festival.

The government needs to take balanced and sound measures to address all the issues which have been appended with the Basant festival.
