Travel
and tourism industry is emerging as a globe turner and within this juncture
India is not an exception and the sector of tourism here is really proving to
be driving call because it gives equal opportunity to the remote section and
urban section to influence the power of natural captivation.
The
associated chambers of commerce and Industry of India after realising the
latent prospective of growing tourism had call for an organised leadership meet
in capital of India where they have highlighted the plan that says Think
tourism-Think India.
After
understanding the concern of the travel and tourism industry the ministry of
tourism have agreed on the page to change the procedures of Visa which in turn
would benefit the country in earning foreign revenue.
Secretary
of tourism ministry Mr Parvez Dewan said the ministry have already cancelled
the plan that called for 60 day gap between consecutive entries within the
country and have asked to accept the mode of visa payment via credit and debit
card. The travellers from Maldives coming into country for medical reason would
not require applying for Visa.
With the growth of liberalisation the ministry
of tourism are running with the prospect to implement the system of electronic
visa which in turn would result in making the country the top four global
tourist sector, said by Dewan.
Though the nation has already taken an
initiative by following the order to implement the same but it would take a
considerable amount of time to make it valid throughout the state. The software
that runs the system is ready now all they require is a train man power to
execute the prospect.
At
present Chinese ranks first in terms of liberalisation visa but soon the
country would have its mark on the same. He said due to our significant
positioning around Life of Pi the Puducherry has been receiving the increase
numbers of Chinese travellers.
Because
of cleanliness and no extreme between rich and poor lot of travellers heads to
Kerala, Ladakh and Goa while concluding on the same note he said the next
growing destination would be North eastern state of India.
Realising
an importance of creating employment ready candidates the tourism sector have
affiliated their course with world's top hotel school Ecole Hoteliere Avignon.
With the same plan all the IHM and State IHM would work under the guidelines of
Ecole Hoteliere de Lausanne.
The
government in its course have already finalised the plan to approve the Indian
Culinary Institute to support the same cause. ICI would act as a repository of
every recipe of India and the trainee here would be asked to cook different
types of cuisine which is celebrated across India. As per the plan the
Molecular gastronomy research and training will also play its hand.
Understanding
the importance of domestic tourism Dewan said out of nation population half of
the travellers are native which as per the research are expected to be improve
more after every year.
At present India ranks 39 in terms of arrival
of foreign tourist and 16 when it comes to earning foreign exchange receipts
but when it comes to spending of per capita towards tourist then nation ranks
in with good numbers, concluded by Dewan.
