Kabini to be developed on lines of Brindavan Gardens: Minister

Cooperation and District incharge Minister S T Somashekar, on Tuesday, said Kabini dam would be developed on the lines of the Brindavan Gardens in Krishnaraja Sagar (KRS) dam, in Srirangapatna taluk, at a cost of Rs 48 crore and it would be announced in the budget.

Speaking after inaugurating an arch, near Kanchamalli, on the Mysuru-H D Kote border, he said, though people know about H D Kote taluk, they are not aware of the significance of tourism spots in the taluk. The arch will draw attention towards it, he said.

Various development works would be taken up in the taluk. The government has given approval for the construction of a bridge and development of roads. This would help in the overall development of the district. I am committed for the development of tourism sector, the Minister said. MLA Anil Chikkamadu and officials were present.
