Malik further added that they are hopeful that more such boats will be procured soon.

 

He appreciated the Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha led administration and Tourism department for taking such initiatives, which would help in reviving the water transport.

 

Malik also appealed the common masses to use water transport like road transport.

“JKTDC had issued tenders in this regard and we have procured it. We have imported this boat, which has the capacity of 35 passengers, drivers and four rescue operators. We have done the trial run from Lasjan to Lal Chowk,” Hanan said.

 

“As the roads are already congested, the water transport will help in easing the hardships of people,” he added.
