A long-pending proposal to construct a Ranga Mandira at Bondel in the city has taken a leap with Mangaluru City Corporation (MCC) sending the financial bid of the proposed project for the approval of the Directorate of Municipal Administration earlier this month, according to Shivaraja S. Tangadagi, Minister for Kannada and Culture and Backward Classes Welfare.
Replying to an unstarred question by Y. Bharat Shetty, MLA for Mangaluru City North, in the Legislative Assembly on Thursday, the Minister said that the MCC sent the bid for the approval on August 6, 2026. Construction of the project will be taken up once the financial bid is approved. The MCC is the implementing agency of the project.
