Chamarajanagar MP and former Minister V. Srinivas Prasad has expressed his opposition to the proposed ropeway to Chamundi Hills and has written to Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai to reconsider the project on the grounds that it was inimical to the environment.
This has given a boost to the cause of environmentalists and a large section of the citizens who have launched a ‘’Save Chamundi Hills’’ movement and are opposing the ropeway.
In a letter dated March 25, Mr. Srinivas Prasad made it clear that the opposition to the project was not without its merits and highlighted the fragile ecology of Chamundi Hills and its environment.
