Urban Development & Housing minister of the Rajasthan government recently took stock of the work progress at Chambal riverfront site during an official tour of Chambal River in a boat along with other officials.

With a whopping budget of Rs 700 crore, the Chambal Riverfront Project is set to change the face of coaching city Kota.

Terming the riverfront as an amazing tourist spot and a source of employment generation for local youths, the mnister directed officials to complete the project by March.

Designed on basis of Hadoti and Rajputana architecture, the riverfront is being constructed on a 3km-stretch on both banks of Chambal river and is situated at the entry point of the city near Landmark coaching zone.

Besides 22 newly built ghats, the riverfront would be adorned with various facilities that include a café, handicraft bazaar, skating area, painters lane, art galleries, restaurants, kids zone and yoga street.

Besides, the front will have a giant Chambal goddess statue, world’s largest bell, a tall buddhist 3D statue, Nehru statue, amphitheatre, laser show, sculpture park and wi-fi riverfront.
