Backing out of Ropeway now would dent Meghalaya’s investment image: Paul

What's behind this

Tourism Minister Paul Lyngdoh said the Meghalaya government will not relocate or withdraw the proposed Rs 150‑crore Shillong Peak ropeway, despite opposition and concerns about local clearances and environmental impact. He reiterated that the project has already received the necessary permissions and clearances and cannot be rolled back after formal agreements were signed, warning that backing out now would dent Meghalaya’s investment image. The state therefore intends to proceed with the ropeway’s execution.
