Uttarakhand‘s chief secretaryS S Sandhuheld a detailed discussion on the future possibilities in the tourism sector with the departmental officials.
“Along with the Char Dham yatra, other tourist places have been playing an important role in boosting the economy and EMPLOYMENT in the state. Maximum number of tourists come from Delhi-NCR throughout the year, especially on weekends, and after the construction of Delhi-Dehradun expressway, the number is expected to increase. So, we have to start preparations from now itself,” Sandhu said.
Instructions were given to prepare two categories of tourism activities according to the geographical and natural condition of the state. Activities in category ‘A’ would be the ones which can be started immediately and category ‘B’ would have activities which require some work before launch.
