\u201cLast year we cleaned one third of Dal Lake. But this year we are committed to clean major portions of the Lake. I must say Dal Lake will be clean largely,\u201d the CS said. Without pointing to any agency, the chief secretary said that a lot of lip service was done and expert committees were formed without any outcome.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have seen experts coming and going without delivering any fruitful results. But this year we have taken an oath to clean the major parts of the Dal Lake without any delay,\u201d he said. \u201cBesides several ongoing activities, a lot of projects are being conceptualized for cleaning Dal Lake,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Regarding the sewerage treatment of houseboats in Dal Lake, the chief secretary said that the necessary scientific arrangements are underway and it would be completed before June 2022.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
\n

\u201cThe biggest concern of sewerage of houseboats will be addressed on priority and the Dal waters would get a new lease of life.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere are lot of rumours regarding Dal Lake as it has shrunken to a large extent and water is highly dirty, but it isn\u2019t entirely true,\u201d he said, adding \u201cWe will address the problems of houseboats, its sewerage, and that would address the problems of overall life of Dal Lake.\u201d He said he has been personally monitoring the Dal Lake projects and also taking on-the-spot assessment of the ongoing projects.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
\n
The chief secretary, Dr Arun Kumar Mehta said that the Jhelum Riverfront Project is being implemented by Jal Shakti Department under the Srinagar Smart City project\u2014which would give a new look and new experience to the visitors coming to Srinagar.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
\n

\u201cSrinagar wouldn\u2019t be just a visit to Dal Lake\u2014visitors will have a lot of attractions in Srinagar besides river cruise and also water transportation through heritage city,\u201d he said. He said that the phase-1 of the JRFP is envisaged with modern public utilities and state-of-the-art green space.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
Mehta said that the new projects would add new attractions to Srinagar and increase tourist flux to Srinagar.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
\n

\u201cWe will very soon start cruise services in Srinagar. Besides that, development of the riverfront along Jhelum will add to the beauty of Srinagar city,\u201d he said. \u201cPeople who have been visiting European cities like Paris, Italy etc will have the similar sites to explore in Srinagar,\u201d the CS hoped.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
