Nearly three months after suspending entry of tourists to Idukki dam, one of the major tourist attractions in Idukki, the Kerala Hotel and Restaurant Association (KHRA) is planning to stage protests demanding that tourists be allowed to enter the dam.
The tourist entry to Idukki dam has been suspended since September 5 after a major security breach was identified.
“The Idukki dam is the only tourist attraction in this area and after the suspension of tourist entry to the dam, the number of tourists to the region has seen a major decline,” said Dominic V.A., KHRA Cheruthoni unit executive member. He added that there are nearly 400 small homestays and hotels in the Cheruthoni region.
