Corporatize Indian Tourism



There is one sector in India, which is highly scattered and unorganized but have the potential to reap profits in millions and billions and that sector is Tourism. For tourist, India offers rich cultural heritage, beautiful landscape, mountain ranges, monuments, beaches, wild life . With so much to offer, still revenue wise it is way below world ranking.

Where it is lagging behind?
1. Infrastructure : Hotels, railways, roads, airways,information sites. Go to any place in Europe, the infrastructure to tourist place are simply superb, even a first time tourist don't have to worry about the itinerary, everything is available at anytime at anyplace.

2. Security : Security is the main concern for tourist coming to India.

3. Hygienic and Friendly Environment

4. Centralized Tracking System.

5. Regulated Tourist Agents : Most of the tourist agents in India are not regulated, these agents should be regulated to make things economic for both national and international tourists.

6. Unstable borders and communal problems : Unstable borders and communal tensions often deprived tourist to explore some of the famous places in India like J&K.

How Tourism Corporatism will help?

First of all it will help to build required Infrastructure it may be good roads, railways or hotels. With the help of the central and state govt. tourist data can be maintained in the centralized tracking system.Secondly, at famous tourist place instead of govt. police surveillance, private security guards can be deployed, so that tourist considers them to be safe and feel a be like home environment.

Though some of the problems listed above are even beyond the control of Corporates, but still we have a long way to go in order to tap this multi billion dollar industry, and this cannot be achieve until and unless we corporatize this sector.

Thanks&Regards,
Mohit

India have historically played an important role in the development of global trade links. The impact of these economy on the global economy declined as a result of colonial competition. During the 1950s, the dominant ideology of their governments was that the state play a pivotal role in the indian economy.
