All amusement parks agree there is an element of risk
involved in their business that includes adventure rides. So,
CCTV cameras are a must. "Running a theme park is a large
operation, especially during peak season and weekends
when we have 500 to 600 people coming in," says MGM
Dizzee World director.
No regulatory mechanism
The culture of going to theme parks may be well-
entrenched and more than a decade old in the city, but there
is still no licensing or regulatory authority to evaluate
safety in these parks. Until four years ago, there were no
safety guidelines or standards for parks to follow in
building safe rides.
The Bureau of Indian Standards introduced guidelines for
structural safety in 2004, but there is still no enforcing
agency to ensure that they are in place.
While parks have to obtain structural stability certificates
on an annual basis from the Public Works Department, this
is a common practice for most buildings and inspections are
not carried out specifically to assess the safety of rides
Still the basic certification is not strictly observed.
