It is noteworthy that RITES Limited initially studied the feasibility of ropeways at five locations – Jonha, Hundru, Dasham, Kauleshwari, and Ranchi Hill Temple. However, due to land-related issues, Dasham and Ranchi Hill Temple were found unsuitable for ropeway construction. On the other hand, Jonha and Hundru were selected as the most suitable sites for the installation of ropeways.
Additionally, the second phase of the project to develop Netarhat as a world-class tourist destination will soon begin, and the tender process for this has already started.
