Mangaluru, Nov 12: The long-awaited musical fountain with laser show at Kadri Park is finally set to open for public.
The latest attraction in the largest lung space in the city will be inaugurated towards the end of this month by chief minister Siddarmaiah. The date of inauguration will be fixed depending on the CM's availability.
For now, the musical fountain with laser show is on trial rounds, which will continue till the formal inauguration. Every evening, the engineers concerned with project will run the shows from 6:30 pm to 7:30 pm to detect any technical issues and ensure functional capacity.
The Rs 5-crore project has been completed by MUDA, and after the inauguration it will be handed over to the horticultural department.
The project was supposed to be inaugurated in June this year, but after inspection and trial shows, MLA J R Lobo expressed dissatisfaction in its standards, and directed the officials and the engineers to do some changes and make it more attractive. Now, with all the required changes done, complete with elaborate and creative laser displays specially depicting the local culture and specialities, the project is finally ready to roll.
As per MUDA officials, there is no entry or access to the public during the trial run. Public will be allowed only after the formal inauguration.
