Berahampur, June 13, 2013:

Tara Tarini hill shrine in Ganjam district is all set to get a new ropeway to the hill top.

According to authorities of the Tara Tarini Development Board (TTDB), a test run of this new modernised ropeway had started from May 14. After completion of one month of test run, there would be a proper security check and date of its inauguration would be fixed. It may be noted that a Kolkata-based company had started a ropeway to the hill top in 2007. In August 2012 this company withdrew from the project. According to the secretary of the TTDB, Pramod Panda, the ropeway had remained defunct since August 2012.
