| Hoteliers welcome decision on Manda | | |
Jammu, Jan 5
All Jammu Hotels and Lodges Association has welcomed the central
government's decision to convert Manda Wild Life Sanctuary into a
national wild life park and extending its area to 2000 hectares up to
Nandani.
A meeting of the hoteliers association held here today under the
Chairmanship of its President, Inderjeet Khajurai said that this meets
the long standing and repeated demand of AJHLA in this regard. It
observed that it will be a step towards making Jammu an independent
tourist destination. The association demanded that many other promised
projects towards making Jammu as independent tourist destination be
expedited, so that before the rail is extended upto Katra, which will
adversely affect the economy of Jammu city as a transit camp for
Vaishno Devi pilgrims, Jammu becomes an independent tourist
destination and compensates the loss to the city.
In this regard the association demanded that the project of
underground aquarium in Bagh-e-Bahu should be completed within
shortest possible period, Mubarak Mandi heritage complex should also
be commissioned soon besides construction of rope way and installation
of cable car between Mubarak Mandi to Bagh-e-Bahu and upto Mahamaya
hill top. The association also contented that the creation of
artificial lake in river Tawi from main bridge to Sidhra bridge, with
ferrying of boats in the same will be the most effective step to make
Jammu city as hub of independent tourist destination.
The others who attended the meeting included Pawan Gupta, Gen
Secretary, Ajay Gupta, Sr. Vice President, H. S. Manhas, Vice
President, Ajay Suri, Secretary, Vikram Singh, Publicity Secretary,
and Baldev, Treasurer.
