Water Resources Minister Roshy Augustine has said that the department would launch irrigation tourism in the State.
Speaking after attending various functions in the district, Mr. Augustine said the innovative project would be launched by integrating water conservation activities along with tourism.
Various sites, under the department, across the State would be utilised for the project, the Minister said. Construction works of the irrigation canals for the Banasura Sagar dam, the largest earthen dam in the country, would be completed partially by the end of 2025, Mr. Augustine said, adding that if it was necessary more appointments would be made to complete the project.
