This visionary plan not only aims to enhance existing tourist spots but also envisions the creation of entirely new attractions for visitors.”
Rashmi Sharma, Director of the Tourism Department, expressed the department’s dedication to revitalizing the state’s tourism sector. She revealed that a substantial investment of INR 70.06 crore has been allocated to support ongoing development and renovation activities across all districts.
