New spots sprout on tourism map - 10/05/05

The forest Department is ready to trap the tourism potentials of Odlabari and its surroundings. While addressing the audience the forest development minister Mr. Jogesh Barman said, `The forest department has received Rs. 1 crore for developing the Gojaldoba Tista barrage area and some other areas around Odlabari to form a tourist circuit.` The Gojaldoba Tista barrage is situated closed to the town. The projects will be able to be fulfilled with help of local residents.

The intention of the department is to promote this place as a tourist spot. Earlier forest department focused on tea tourism in the district. `We will construct eco-tourism resort and watch tower in Gajaldoba,` said the minister. This place is growing as a bird watching point. There are some other points like Apalchand forest can also be part of the circuit. The visitors will enjoy the place more because it could offer the tourists some unique place like coal mines in Bagrakot and dolomite on Noam hills. It can be a popular tourist place once the projects come to end.
