When the issue of Tourism Minister Satpal Maharaj’s son’s application for operating a cruise boat in the Tehri Dam reservoir came to a head, he issued a statement clarifying the situation.

The Tourism Minister said that Tehri Special Area Tourism Development Authority had openly invited applications for cruise boat operations. Complete transparency was adopted in this. Those raising controversy in this regard should know that right now these are only applications.

No one got any approval to operate cruise boats. Some political persons tried to spread confusion by calling it a tender. No money of any kind was to be invested by the government in this process. The investor will do this work himself.

The Tourism Minister said that his son is keen to invest in Uttarakhand and provide employment to local people. His political life has always been spotless.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi is our source of inspiration today. He has taught us that we should live like a lotus. There should be cleanliness and purity in politics. Therefore, he will request his son to withdraw his application, so that no one gets an opportunity to create unnecessary controversy.
