Sinhagad which stands as a testimony to the valor of the great Maratha warriors and proclaims the grandeur and the glory of the Maratha Empire is all set to get a face-lift.
The Government of Maharashtra has declared the year 2011 as the Tourism Year and many tourist attractions in the state are all set for a revamp. Sinhagad which is of course one of the important tourist places in Maharashtra, too, is to be refurbished under this project.
The Maharashtra Tourism Development Corporation (MTDC) is to undertake thee revamping of the fort pretty soon. Handsome grant has been sanctioned by the Ministry of Tourism and this has given way to the development activities at various tourist destinations, weekend getaways and pilgrimage centres in and around Pune.
An MTDC official in a press conference on Monday said, “Renovation of Sinhagad is well on the agenda. It is a big step taken towards developing tourism within the area and 11 schemes have been constituted in the plan.”
The MTDC has already started the renovations of the two suites in the forest department’s guesthouse. The MTDC official said, “Construction of a meditation centre for tourists and trekkers is also underway.
Construction of pathways, railings and signages is already complete. Building a canteen and a parking lot is also on the cards.
There has been some delay in securing sanction for building the canteen and parking area, as the land belongs to the forest department.”
The proposal of the renovation of the Sinhagad fort was approved in 2005 and the actual work began in the year 2008. The official added, “The Union Government’s Tourism Ministry has sanctioned Rs. 3.76 crore for the development, though the original budget was Rs. 4.70 crore.
Mandhardev and Morachi Chincholi are the two other places where the MTDC has undertaken similar kind of revamping activities. Among the other important projects to get underway shortly, the construction of Annabhau Sathe Shilpsrushti at Wategaon in the district of Sangli, construction of Dnyanjyoti Savitribai Phule Shilpsrushti at Naigaon and that of Punyashlok Ahilyabai Holkar Shilpsrushti in Choundi are a few.

I beliеve that avoiding refined foods may be thе firѕt step so that уоu саn lose weight. They wіll taste very good, but prepared foods have got vеrу littlе nutritional value, making you try to eat morе in order to hаvе enоugh vigor tо gеt throughout the day. If уou're constantly having thеse foods, converting tо cereals and оthеr complex carbohydrates will let you have mоrе vigor while consuming less. Good blog post.
