Promotion of tourism
Q. Suggest three effective
measures to promote tourism,
especially by foreign tourists.
Elucidate or explain how the steps
suggested by you would motivate
foreign tourists to include India in
their itinerary.
Ans. With a treasure trove of tourist
spots, both natural and man-made, it is

historical buildings, temples, places of
worship, parks and sanctuaries, sea
resorts, hill stations, vast deserts and so
on, can attract a large number of tourists
provided the following measures are
taken in the right earnest.
Today, tourism has become a big
business, thanks to the state of art means
of transport and communication. And,
all business and commercial activities
require safe and secure environment;
tourism is no exception to the rule.
Before making all-round efforts to attract
foreign tourists to India, no effort should
be spared to make tourist spots free from
the scourge of neglect and the feeling of
insecurity.

Council (WTTC) has suggested a
number of measures to help tourism
become Indias foremost economic
driver. These include altering the
decision-making process on tourism,
according tourism a radically elevated
status in priority and investment, and
liberalising Indias visa regime. For
foreign tourists, time is the most
important element in their itinerary. If it
goes waste in trivial matters like getting
visas, gathering information about
tourist centres, nearest airports, hotels
etc, most tourists are likely to skip India,
as it has been happening in the past.
