Kushalnagar, June 24: Madikeri MLA Dr. Mantar Gowda has expressed his opinion that emphasis will be placed on providing more amenities to the locals through a massive project of constructing a five-kilometer-long walkway along the banks of Cauvery River in Kushalnagar town.

He was speaking after inaugurating the Cauvery Rotary Park, which was built along with the revival of the historical bridge on the Kushalnagar-Koppa border.

He said that an action plan will be prepared for the construction of a walkway on the banks of Cauvery River from near Baichanahalli in Kushalnagar to Mullusoge and submitted to the government through the officials of the Cauvery Irrigation Corporation.

Dr. Mantar Gowda said that the park, which has been constructed in an attractive manner for the important people in the Kushalnagar Rotary Golden Jubilee project, is commendable.

He expressed his appreciation for the historical bridge, which had been facing a lack of maintenance for the last 25 years, being cleaned and converted into a park with the cooperation of the government and local donors, and contributing to the society.
