Bengaluru: Due to Covid-19 pandemic, the biannual flower show at Lalbagh which will be held during republic Day (January 26) has been postponed.
Horticulture and Sericulture Minister Narayan Gowda held a meeting with the officials concerned and decided to postpone the show till Independence Day.
The Lalbagh flower show has its origins in the second half of the 19th century, inspired by The Great Spring Show, an annual flower show organised by the Royal Horticultural Society of England.
Before the Glass House was built in 1890, the flower shows were held at the bandstand. The Lalbagh flower show became a biannual event in summer and winter from 1912.
