Mangaluru, Nov 4: The MLA of Kumta constituency, Sharada Mohan Shetty, assumed charge as the new chairperson of the Coastal Development Authority at its office in the Mangaluru City Corporation (MCC) building at Lalbhag on Friday, November 4.

Speaking on the occasion Sharada said “I will work to bring more funds to the various projects for the development of three districts, Dakshina Kannada, Udupi and Uttara Kannada from the government and implement new projects. I aim to develop the fisheries port, the connecting roads to ports, the tourism etc and thus contributing to the overall development of the region,”

The MLA of Mangaluru South constituency, J R Lobo, congratulated the new chairperson and said "The current government has taken special interests to strengthen the Coastal Development Authority, which previously had limited role of playing only as an advisory committee in framing new projects for the three coastal districts of Karnataka namely Dakshina Kannada, Udupi and Uttara Kannada. In the financial year 2014-15, the government had sanctioned Rs 10 crore while in the current term, that is 2015-16, it has been given Rs 15 crore."

The new chairperson succeeded the previous chairman Nivedith Alva.

    nice to know somebody from Uttar kannada is head c d a...leaders from dakshin kannada never cared for development of karavali.

    better to give chance to leaders from udupi district or uttar kannada district to develop the entire karnataka coastal belt.

    Congrats Madam. I am not sure what is the scope of coastal development authority and its budget. Ports and the allied activities are not fully explored or developed in coastal area except New Mangalore.
    I urge you to take this opportunity to develop ports in other coastal areas like Malpe, Gangolli and North Kanara areas. Also tourism potential could also be explored as it has a big opening.Tourism is explored to some extent in Malpe or Ullal. But there is huge potential in other areas. This will bring a boon to economic activities of the coastal region.

    10-15 Crores too little for this kind of development. However, they can make government to look into beach development and tourism.
