The Citizen Council, Mandi, has urged Anurag Thakur, Union Minister for Information & Broadcasting and Sports & Youth Affairs, to include Chhoti Kashi Mandi under the Smart City project.

OP Kapoor, president of Citizen Council, said, “Mandi is a city of archaeological importance. It has always been the centre of trade. This city has the capacity to fulfil the criteria needed for the Smart City project.”

“We urged the minister to instal ‘moksha’ furnaces under the green cremation system in the main cremation ground of the city. We requested him to construct a lake in the Beas river near Mandi to attract tourists and to connect the archaeological temples of the Ghats of Chhoti Kashi,” he added.

“Due to the construction of Pandoh dam in Mandi, the damage caused to the climate in the low-lying areas has not been compensated for to date,” he added. — TNS
