Mussoorie, October 13
Tourism and Medical Education Minister Dinesh Dhanai today said the Tehri lake would find a place on the map of international tourism soon as an important adventure sports destination. Dhanai addressed mediapersons after reaching New Tehri here.
He said the state government was planning to make the lake a hub of adventure and water sports. The Tehri Lake Festival that will begin on October 15 is a part of the state government’s plan.
“Several adventure sport activities such as jet ski competition, kayaking, canoeing, speed boats among others will be organised during the festival. People should support the government in this noble cause that will not only boost tourism, but also provide employment opportunities to locals,” he said. — TNS
