Dutta honeymoon 'will promote eco issues'

Lara Dutta's honeymoon could be cancelled because the Goan beach she was planning to visit has "disappeared" because of a stranded cargo vessel called River Princess.

The authorities in Goa are planning to use Dutta's story to promote their environmental cause, New Kerala has reported.

Campaigner Fermino Fernandes said: "We will use the Lara Dutta [and Mahesh Bhupathi]'s wedding to bring the attention of the country to the River Princess issue.

"[The national media] only have to swing their cameras a little bit from the wedding venue to the boat, which is there for more than 10 years only because the government does not care."

Dutta married tennis doubles specialist Mahesh Bhupathi in a white-themed wedding ceremony this week.
