JAMMU, Feb 17: The BJP, which is in power in Jammu and Kashmir in alliance with the PDP, on Saturday expressed concern over "delay" in the completion of various developmental projects in Jammu city and urged the ministers concerned to complete these at the earliest.
Virender Gupta, the BJP's state spokesperson, said construction of an artificial lake, that started in 2008-09, laying of a pathway and setting up of parks along the banks of the Tawi river, need to be started on a war footing to make Jammu city a tourist attraction. The Bahu Fort cable car project, which was planned in 2002, needs to be completed at the earliest, he said, and expressed concern over the "slow pace" of work on Patnitop ropeway project which was planned in 2007.
It is a matter of great concern that projects envisaged or started in Jammu region have not been completed and some of them have been put in cold storage, Gupta said. |
