Taplejung, Feb 11: The stakeholders have stressed the need for resolving disputes over the construction of a cable car in Taplejung through dialogue. The Pathivaradham is a famous pilgrim site in Taplejung district.
They also viewed the development work should be environment-friendly. The speakers at a press meet said dialogue was the best option to settle the differing stands surrounding the cable car construction. The press meet was organized by Phungling municipality on Monday. It was attended by local level people’s representatives, representatives from various organizations, business community, and media persons.
Mayor Amir Maden said Taplejung district was waiting for development works for long. The cable car can be an effective medium to launch developments here, he said, adding that the dispute, however, needs immediate resolution.
The cable car is not only a ropeway to facilitate those visiting the famous pilgrim site in the district but also a means to create jobs and promote tourism, he argued. The mayor also urged the ‘no cable car group’ to join dialogue for clearing hurdles.
General Secretary of Taplejung Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Kamal Limbu, viewed it is essential to forge unity and be univocal on construction of cable car in Taplejung.
Other speakers representing the political parties also underlined the need for holding dialogue to sort out problems and find amicable solution.#nepal #rss
