Work on ropeway yet to begin

Staff Correspondent

SHIMLA: Congress MLA Vijay Singh Mankotia stated in the Himachal Vidhan Sabha on Tuesday that it had been more than 23 years that work on the Shimla-Jakhoo Hill ropeway could not be started.

He said when he was State Tourism Minister work on this project was sanctioned to a company. But without taking any names he said he was stopped and not allowed to raise the matter in the Cabinet.

"I was told to give this project to a company called Golden Forest that later on was declared bankrupt."

Major Mankotia said the Chief Minister had then agreed to give this prestigious tourism project to the Municipal Corporation instead of the Tourism Department.
