KUMAAR HOLIDAYS No. 42, Chowdary Nagar Main Road, Valasaravakkam, Chennai-87 Cell: 78109 86933 / 78108 96933 / 93810 61000 E-mail: [email protected] Website: www.kumaarholidays.com Seaplane tourism which looks to connect the various backwater destinations around Kerala still operates under the lights of state government and as per the source the initiative that looks to develop the transport and communication facility of the State would rather leave the common fishermen dying for the hopes of survival. As the petition which was filed two years ago regarding the measures of seaplane are still defying the truth and leaving the common people in doubt of justice. As per the proposals the fishermen would rather prefer houseboat and their common means of transportation to connect the boundaries because that would give a hope to the locals to earn their livelihood which in turn would save the environment. Failing to act upon the prospects of the local fishermen would result in water pollution that directly hampers the tourism and more primarily the visage of marine life. So considering the facts the fishermen are ideally hoping to follow the old ways of transportation. As per the words of A.P Anil Kumar, Minister of tourism the purpose and the prospects of the fishermen would be taken under consideration as the detailed survey that looks to meet the bipolar thoughts of the government and the local people would be examined by the committee where representative of the fishermen of Kerala would have their say. It was during Monday the minister while addressing the press conference said; it is a dream project to carve the lines of seaplane which would act like houseboats and while concluding with his word he called for an eight edition of the Kerala Travel Mart. As per the source the Mart would have its say during the call of September under the roof of Samudrika convention centre where tourism products would come down to show its influence. When we say the highlights of the tourism products than an inspiring Village life, culture tours and destination weddings would bring the shackles down. Under such conviction the organisers of Kerala tourism, tour and houseboat operators, hospitality and stakeholders will participate to display their products before buyers to meet with their perspective. While answering one question which was related with the revival of Kerala tourism Development Corporation, Mr Anil Kumar said we have already directed the CMD agency’s to call for marketing campaigns. Although he did not clarify regarding the steps to deploy the boat within Kochi to revive backwater tours but he certainly assured the new plans and prospect would work to unfold the potential of the state. On economic slowdown, he said the same incident had really hampered the Kerala tourism and the footfall have not increased in a way they had expected in the last season so to conclude with the detailed information the Data collection process is making its grounds. While talking about Muziris project he said the process of the phase one met its side on anvil as the formal launch would come under effect after the commencement of the Lok Sabha election. 112 panchayats would come under the lines of responsible tourism that would be given a specific training and the initiative that embraces the course of it at Kumarakom was attributed by the UNWTO. Regarding cleanliness in most of the tourist places he said the project would ensure proper method to tackle with such problem and to initiate with the same the places like Kumarakom, Munnar, Alappuzha etc is working under the lines.
