For the first time, Rajasthan’s desert state will start a cruise facility in Ajmer, the city famous for the Sufi Saint Khwaja Moinuddin Chishti shrine. The double-decker cruise, with a capacity of 150 passengers, is expected to begin operations in the first week of March.
The cruise will sail in Ana Sagar lake in the city.
The work tender, which was issued last year, will be completed by February 2023. The cruise will depart in Ana Sagar Lake in the city. According to a representative of the Ajmer Municipal Corporation, the Corporation will receive an annual income of Rs 66.5 lakh.
Ajmer Municipal Corporation’s Assistant engineer Ravindra Saini said the cruise’s route would be different from the route used by the boats on the lake.
The contractor will decide the rates of tickets after approval by the Corporation. “The cruise will have a restaurant facility, and people will be able to book it for small parties and functions,” he said.
Another official said the work order was given to the firm in February last year, and a 15-month time was given to make the cruise.
