Homestays, ropeway to change the face of Manipur tourism

Besides homestays, the state government is coming up with several other measures to boost tourism. For instance, Loktak lake, on whose southwestern shore lies the Keibul Lamjao National Park, is home to the endangered Sangai deer or brow-antlered deer that is native only to Manipur. "Loktak lake is a major tourist attraction. We are planning to go for a cable-car ropeway project. A detailed project report (DPR) is under preparation in this connection," Manipur Tourism Special Secretary N. Ashok Kumar said.
