Posted on Fri Apr 13, 2007 at 02:18:05 AM EST

The formation of the Sunderban Infrastructure Development Corporation was approved by the state cabinet on Thursday. The cabinet also approved a revision in the allowances of legislators.

Though the Sunderban area already has a development board, the corporation is expected to help in the development of big infrastructure in the area, which has remained an unfulfilled task for years.

“The Sunderban Development Board will take care of infrastructure and will implement various social sector schemes such as plantation of mangroves and schemes related to agriculture and livelihood. The corporation will also be able to take up construction projects like building bridges,” a senior official said.

Besides constructing concrete roads, bridges and providing basic amenities, the corporation will also collect tolls after it builds the bridges.

“The corporation may also work as a link-agency and co-ordinate development activities in the region with other departments. Another important aspect will be to build infrastructure that supports eco-tourism,” said the official.

Environmentalists have said that eco-tourism projects should not hinder the biodiversity of the region.

And the corporation may have to look into issue. To be housed in a new building, the corporation will also take care of the development projects undertaken as joint ventures.

Meanwhile, the Cabinet also approved a revision in allowances of state legislators. Some of the revisions will come as compensatory allowances (from Rs 1,500 to Rs 2,000), constituency allowances (from Rs 2,500 to Rs 3,000), daily allowances (from Rs 350 to Rs 500) and as pension.
