Monday, Dec. 11: Madikeri constituency MLA Dr. Mantar Gowda attracted the attention of the House in the Vidhan Sabha session regarding the project to install a cable car at Mallalli waterfall, a famous tourist destination in the taluk.
During the winter session being held at Suvarna Vidhana Soudha in Belgaum, the MLA, who raised the issue in the presence of Speaker U.T. Khader, said that on 15.06.2024, the Tourism Department had approved the implementation of 1 cable car for Mallalli waterfall out of the proposal to install 11 cable car projects in various parts of the state. Further, the techno-feasibility report has been prepared through the RITES organization. A plan has been prepared for 3 terminals. The proposed project will be implemented at Kumaralli village, S.No. In the documents dated 1/9, it is mentioned as Paisari forest. There is confusion about whether this land comes under Paisari or under the forest, and the Forest Minister should resolve the confusion.
At least an alternative land should be provided. He requested that the authorities should take action to provide land, even through forest conversion. In the absence of the Tourism Minister, Health Minister Dinesh Gundurao replied that there is no problem from the government for the implementation of the project. Most of the approvals have been received. Paisari forest is mentioned in the document of the place where the proposed project will be implemented. To resolve this confusion, a proposal has been submitted to the Forest Department. After receiving a no-objection letter from there, action will be taken to implement the project. He said that the Forest Minister should take action in this regard.
MLA Mantar Gowda intervened and said that if this project starts, it will be of great benefit for development in that area. Tourism will grow even more. Forest Minister Ishwar Khandre drew their attention to the issue and instructed the Forest Department officials to pay attention to this and resolve the documentation-related issues.
