Leakage in bridge: No boating at Brindavan Gardens
The bridge, measuring approximately 350 feet in length, 12-15 feet in width, and about 15 feet in height, has developed cracks, causing excessive leakage and making it challenging to maintain the water levels necessary for boating.
According to Cauvery Neeravari Nigama Limited (CNNL) officials, the boating service was halted three months ago. Although water was initially released for boating due to good inflow to the KRS Dam, reduced rainfall has made it difficult to sustain the required water level, leading to the suspension of boating for the past 20 days.
The Karnataka State Tourism Development Corporation (KSTDC), which operates the boating facility, requested CNNL to provide an estimate for the necessary bridge repairs. In response, CNNL submitted a cost estimate of Rs. 2.5 crore, which KSTDC officials in Mysuru have forwarded to their headquarters in Bengaluru.
