Must read

Shillong, Sept 27: Tourism Minister Paul Lyngdoh on Wednesday informed that the ropeway project at Shillong peak has got all the clearances, including from the defence forces of 101 Area and from the forest department.

With these hurdles out of the way, the government will soon be calling for an expression of interest, mentioned the minister.

He added that hopefully before the year ends, the project should commence.

It may be noted that the Meghalaya Cabinet had, in September last year, approved the first passenger ropeway project in the state to be constructed from Lawsohtun to Shillong Peak at a cost Rs 138 crore.

The Shillong Rope Way Project will start from terminal point at Madan Laban towards Lumparing and to view point of Shillong Peak. The Rope Way will have 12 cables initially and the engineering will be done as per the European standard.
