Additionally, the park adheres to National Building Code of India (NBC) and Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) standards and is equipped with a fire sprinkler system, fire storage tanks, a comprehensive storm water drain system, and a centralized security building with CCTV surveillance to ensure a secure environment that aligns with global standards.
