Udupi: The pontiffs of Sri Paryaya Puttige Mutt, the sacred seat of Jagadguru Shrimad Madhvacharya Moola Samsthanam, have submitted a proposal to the Prime Minister seeking comprehensive development for Udupi district.
Proposal for International Airport
A key request is the establishment of an international airport. Highlighting that around 1,000 acres of land are available and suitable, the pontiffs noted that the existing Mangalore Airport provides limited international connectivity. They suggested the airport be developed under a Public-Private Partnership (PPP) or as a Greenfield Airport to boost trade, education, healthcare, and spiritual tourism.
Metro and Rapid Transit Connectivity
The proposal also calls for Metro Rail or Rapid Transit between Mangaluru and Udupi. The 55 km coastal stretch experiences heavy daily commuter traffic, causing congestion. The district administration is ready to prepare an initial project report for a Mass Rapid Transit corridor and requested inclusion under national urban mobility programmes to ensure safe, green, and time-efficient regional transport.
Port and Coastal Development
The pontiffs urged the development of an international-standard port with a cruise terminal along Udupi’s coast. They also requested fast-tracking of pending coastal tourism projects and revising Coastal Regulation Zone (CRZ) norms to encourage sustainable infrastructure and hospitality investment.
IT, AI and Technological Infrastructure
Support was sought for an IT and AI Innovation Park with incubation facilities under Digital India and Startup India initiatives. The proposal also emphasized the need for strengthened data security and cloud computing infrastructure to boost India’s technological independence.
Sports and Education Initiatives
The pontiffs requested national sports status for Kambala, along with financial and infrastructure support. They also sought the establishment of an AIIMS in Udupi, a new IIT campus, and approval for an IIM to promote higher education in the district.
Representation to the Prime Minister
Sri Sugunendra Tirtha Pontiff and Sri Sushrendra Tirtha Swamiji represented the pontiffs in submitting the comprehensive development proposal to the Prime Minister during his recent visit.

OK let's believe hinduism is fake, but why you guys don't teach quran in right way to terrorist.
Give me any verse from gita which say kill those non-bealiver who does not believe krishna. It's not your duty to kill innocent people at all.
You guys are already brainwashed, hence you never get what is humanity. In daily prayer, you don't seek help from GOD, you just say only allah should be worship, other are fake. It is not prayer, is it making someone into box, which he will never get out of it in whole life.
When Buddhist or Muslims ruled India was their greatest time period in history.
i take pity on wrong beliefs for Hinduism. The best available books on management,maths,politics,economics,philosophy,exercise,yoga are the parts of Hindu religion. The oldest religion in the world.
The people in the world are highly motivated and inspired by hindu religion.
muslims are safe only in countries where they are in minority, wherever they are in majority they are nuisance to themselves as well as others, take any country for example. Imagine if india was muslim country, muslims will make life hell for themselves.
No body will worship a sadist god who will burn some one eternally in hell for their finite crimes. No one believes that soul which has no birth and death is extracted from living , given a new body at time of judgement day and eternally lives in heaven or hell.
No one believes in a god who comes here and there and talk nonsense to so called angels and prophets , but can be heard only , not seen. No one believes in a god who is somewhere up above only but not everywhere or beyond space and time limitations.
