K. Jayaprakash Hegde, former MP, released the manifesto of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) for Udupi Assembly constituency here on Saturday.

Giving details of the manifesto, K. Raghupati Bhat, BJP candidate for Udupi Assembly Constituency, said that instead of the present plan of bringing water from the Varahi to Baje by pipelines, a 10-feet corridor would be constructed from the source to Baje.

The BJP would convert the following two-lane roads: Manipal-Ambagilu, Old Taluk Office-Korangarapady, Beedinagudde-Alevoor, Brahmagiri-Bannanje, Brahmavar-Kalathur, and Manipal-Alevoor-Korangarapady Road into four-lane roads.

Priority would be given to widening the the Malpe-Manipal-Parkala stretch on the National Highway 169A here.

The BJP will give importance to creating Greater Udupi. Solid waste would be scientifically disposed at the waste management plant at Alevoor.

A special fisheries industrial area would be created for the sake of fishermen. The fisherwomen selling dry fish would be given the lands, where they sell, on lease. The upkeep of Malpe beach would be given to local bhajan mandalis instead of private agencies. A cricket stadium would be constructed in Beedinagudde. An Information Technology hub would be established in the Constituency.

Efforts would be made to get an ESI Hospital in Udupi. Housing facilities would be provided to poor people. Udyog Melas would be held annually to provide jobs for the youth.

The maintenance of street lamps in the city would be improved. Importance would be given to maintenance of cleanliness in the city.
