Early Times Report
Jammu, Aug 14: In a Public Interest Litigation filed by Adv Summit Nayyar seeking respondents to develop/improve the tourist infrastructural facilities for the Mantalai-SudhMahadev including temples which attract a large number of tourists every year both in summer and winter season and to take effective measures as expeditiously as possible; a Division Bench of State High Court Comprising Justice Dhiraj Singh Thakur and Justice Sanjay Kumar Gupta after hearing Sr. Adv Sunil Sethi with Adv Sumit Nayyar for the PIL, directed respondents to file detailed affidavit indicating therein that as to whether the plans for all the three projects have already been approved and if they were already approved and the amount is available, then why all the three works could not be executed simultaneously.
DB observed that in the status report, only a general statement is made with regard to the utilization of the funds, which had been sanctioned for the integrated development of the tourist spots of Mantalai, Sudhmahadev & Patnitop. An amount of Rs. 97.82 crores appears to have been sanctioned by the Government of India in this regard on 29.09.2016. As per the status report, only an amount of Rs. 19.56 crores has been spent as on July, 2018 in regard to the said projects.
DB further observed that in regard to the project of Mantalai, it is stated that the NIT has been issued and the work is in progress, which is to be completed by the year 2021.
On a perusal of the status report as also the reply filed by the respondents, DB found that the same does not give details as to what steps have been taken by the authority in regard to other projects for Mantalai and Sudhmahadev and directed to file a detailed affidavit .
With regard to the proper utilization of the existing infrastructure of Dhirendra Brahamchari, a stand has been taken by the official respondents in paragraph No. 11 of the objections that the same would be renovated/ upgraded, with a view to beneficially integrate the said building, to be used along with the planned infrastructure sought to be created in terms of the plans sanctioned and being executed.
