Demand for Disney-type park at KRS revived
Landscaping and development of a park at Kabini Dam on the lines of Brindavan Gardens and a Disney-type project at the Krishnaraja Sagar (KRS) were resurrected from cold storage during the traditional thanksgiving at the two dams by the Chief Minister, Basavaraj Bommai, on Tuesday.
Mr. Bommai, who offered bagina at Kabini dam in H.D. Kote taluk of Mysuru district consequent to the reservoir getting filled to the brim (2,284 ft), said the proposal to develop a park at Kabini was before the government. Though it is being conceived as a PPP model, it is also being proposed that the government should fund it entirely on its own and a suitable decision would be taken in due course, said Mr. Bommai.
The proposal was also included in the State Budget for 2021-22 tabled by the then Chief Minister B.S.Yediyurappa in February this year and ₹50 crore was allocated for it and nearly 300 acres of land is available for park development.
