This move has resulted in silt accumulating downstream at the Chunnambar boat house operated by the PTDC. The Joint Action Committee of the All Puducherry Tourism Development Corporation (PTDC) Employees’ Unions commenced its indefinite strike from Wednesday in protest against the government’s decision to allow a private player to operate a boat house at Edayarpalayam near here. The authorities are trying to hush up the issue while the private player had gone ahead and deepened the river. Tourists visiting the boat house on the weekends have to wait for over two to three hours on the shore. So we have commenced the indefinite agitation till the government comes out with an announcement withdrawing the approval granted to the private player to operate a boat house,” he said.
