The demand for an airstrip in Kodagu for tourism promotions may soon become a reality as the Department of Revenue has promised that the land required for developing the facility would be transferred to the Kodagu district administration.
Minister for Revenue Krishna Byre Gowda has assured Minister in-charge of Kodagu district N.S. Boseraju on Friday that steps will be taken for transferring the land for developing the airstrip.
A meeting in this regard was held in Bengaluru in which Mr. Byre Gowda and Mr. Boseraju took part. Kodagu MLAs Mantar Gowda and A.S Ponnana were also present.
