The
series
of
elections
held
during
the
course
of
this
summer
season
have
had
their
impact
on
the
visitors
and
tourists
of
the
boating
point
being
run
at
the
famous
Swarnala
Cheruvu
(Nellore
Tank)
here
by
the
Andhra
Pradesh
Tourism
Development
Corporation
(APTDC).
Having
four
boats
with
a
capacity
of
total
109
seating
capacity,
this
boating
point
reported
a
revenue
of
Rs.
1.2
lakh
in
May
this
year
as
against
Rs.
2
lakh
during
the
same
month
last
year.
The
usual
summer
crowd
was
not
much
there
this
time
which
was
apparently
because
of
their
prior
engagements
in
their
different
capacities
in
various
stages
of
the
election
process.
Right
from
employees,
students,
activists
and
citizens,
thin
crowd
was
seen
this
summer.
The
AP
Tourism
staff
are
expecting
that
this
will
be
covered
in
the
coming
days
as
the
people
are
increasingly
using
the
new
facilities
and
services
being
provided
at
the
boating
point.
Every
month,
four
to
five
families
are
showing
interest
to
celebrate
the
birthday
of
their
dear
ones
in
a
boat
amid
the
cool
waters
of
the
Nellore
tank
here.
In
such
cases,
they
are
being
taken
up
to
the
centre
of
the
water
body
around
5
p.m.
where
they
would
enjoy
their
time
till
6.30
p.m.
to
7
p.m.
“All
precautionary
measures
are
being
taken
in
such
instances.
Life
jackets
are
being
given
to
all
the
visitors
present
at
such
functions.
There
is
increasing
demand
for
this
service,”
said
K.
Amaranatha
Reddy,
assistant
manager,
AP
Tourism
boating
points,
Nellore
district.
