Kohima, Sep 03: Nagaland has just identified a new tourist spot, a spot so close to Kohima and yet known to very few.

Just a stone's throw away from the Phesama Hydroger site, roughly a 100 metres away, is a breathtaking waterfall which seems to be falling down straight from the skies.

While very few people knew people knew about its existence, the Assam Rifles, who on invitation from the media fraternity of Kohima, visited the site this afternoon, was awestruck at the beauty of the spot and have promised to developed the spot into a tourist destination.

The AR Maj Gen SS Kumar, who is also GOC Nagaland, his Dy GOC, Brig Brijpal Singh, and other senior officials were totally impressed and were seen displaying their childish side at the site.

Interacting with the media persons, Gen.

Kumar promised to put up decorative footbridges and ropes to help picnickers get to the waterfall while also assuring to install 3 stalls which would have fast food to cater to picnickers.

Apart from this, Gen.

Kumar also promised two pools, one for children and one for grownups at the site so as to encourage family outings and picnics at the site.

He would also be inviting Guv Shyamal Datta and others to visit the spot.

He expressed hope that together (AR and the State Govt) can start major initiatives soon to develop the site into a tourist hotspot.

The GOC and his officers also appreciated of the media fraternity for introducing him and his officers and their spouses to the "otherwise-unknown paradise".
