- | Saturday | 17th November, 2018
Uday Kumar Shetty, assistant director, and other department officials were present. The department officials should come up with more viable projects to exploit vast and promising potential that beach tourism offers in the district, Ramu said, adding this is gauged from the fact the footfalls to the beach is increasing. Respective implementing agencies should complete the same in a time bound manner, he said. Projects were entrusted to KRIDL to fast track its implementation, the DC said adding there has been no apparent progress despite these being repeatedly reviewed.Ramu said the department has taken up projects worth Rs 19.78 crore in the district and share of KRIDL in them is Rs 14.14 crore, Nirmithi Kendra Rs 2.02 crore and PWD Rs 3.61 crore. In cases where there is delay in handing over land for construction of yatri nivas, it is prudent that such projects be dropped and other projects prioritised, Ramu noted.The PWD has submitted an estimate for Rs 1.25 crore to develop the road connecting Sulthan Batheri, an ASI-protected site in the city.
