Rajasthan Government to boost tourism and improves infrastructure

The Rajasthan government is actively working to promote tourism in the state. It is developing new tourist places and is currently engaged in identifying new sites with great enthusiasm. An official from the tourism department mentioned, "The state government is dedicatedly working to promote tourism in the state and has taken many important decisions in this regard." Additionally, the state government is enhancing infrastructure facilities around various tourist spots. As part of the plan, the official stated that an infrastructure gap study would be conducted for these destinations. Special emphasis will be placed on improving road connectivity and providing last-mile connectivity. For the development of infrastructure at religious sites, the state government has allocated approximately Rs 1 billion for this fiscal year. The official pointed out that the government's commitment to boosting the tourism sector can be seen from the fact that tourism was granted industry status a few years ago, resulting in increased investments in the sector. Due to the state government's tourism-friendly policies and initiatives, there has been a significant rise in tourism-related projects. In 2022 alone, 206 new projects with a proposed investment of Rs 45 billion. Furthermore, the number of tourists visiting Rajasthan saw a substantial increase, reaching 108.7 million in 2022, compared to 22 million in 2021.
