The main points discussed with the officials and architects in the meet were about the Kursura submarine, underground parking and establishing of Sea Harrier Museum. The Collector has advised that views of MLAs and MPs regarding the projects should be collected and presented to the Chief Minister later on, for the approval.

Underground Parking Facility

The underground parking facility is said to spread around the area from Victory at Sea till the TU-142. The parking lot would be constructed to accommodate more than 400 vehicles.
