Minister for Tourism H.K. Patil said here on Saturday that a proposal for ropeway for Chamundi Hills was before the government but it would take a final decision only after studying the pros and cons of it.
He was speaking to media persons after inaugurating a photo exhibition of Prehistoric Ruins of Karnataka organised at the Department of Archaeology, Museums and Heritage (DAMH)..
Mr. Patil said while the proposal was pending before the government there were serious objections to it as well as views of those supportive of the project. “We will study the pros and cons of the project on the local environment and eco-system before taking a decision. It will also be discussed with Chief Minister Siddaramaiah and the district in charge Minister H.C. Mahadevappa,” said Mr. Patil.
