KOCHI: Fort Kochi, one of the major tourist attractions in the city, is in a state of neglect at a time when the tourism sector is bouncing back to normalcy after the third wave of pandemic.
A tourist coming to the Fort Kochi town will now be welcomed with the sight of heaps of waste materials abandoned by contractors of development works being carried out in the area, open drainages, a beach walkway without handrails, temporary dividers on boat jetty, abandoned trees lying across the walkways and parks, collapsed shelters, abandoned construction materials, pavement tiles scattered on streets, misleading signboards, abandoned old vehicles and many more.
