‘We will probably not look at individual erosion sites alone; we will tackle it holistically. That’s why the approach may be like a once and for all thing to solve erosion problem in the area.’
The director added that the executors and stakeholders of the project held two joint appraisal meetings, with a third scheduled for early March.
