Union Minister of Petroleum and Natural Gas Dharmendra Pradhan on March 19 inaugurated Tampara Lake View Park under Centre's Swadesh Darshan scheme in Odisha's Ganjam.
Around Rs 24.5 crore have been spent to construct the park.
Pradhan said that this park will play a crucial role in increasing the tourism sector of the district.
Tampara Lake is one of the largest fresh water lakes in the State.
The beautiful lake and the nearby Chilika Lagoon highlight the ecological diversity Odisha is blessed with.
While Tampara is a fresh water lake, Chilika is a brackish water lagoon.
