Name
The park was planned by F. W. A. Lahmeyer, general manager of the IISCO Steel Plant. Although officially named Riverside Park, it was nicknamed Lahmeyer Park. In 1989, the 100-year anniversary of the birth of India's first Prime Minister, Jawaharlal Nehru, the park was renamed Nehru Park.[1] A cast iron statue of Nehru, cast at Kulti Works, then part of IISCO, was installed in the park.Script error: No such module "Unsubst".
