Way to go and way to grow!!

It makes every Uttarakhandi happy and proud to get to know that Uttarakhand has been selected as the first tourist destination of India which would be developed in the new Five-Year Plan. 


Apparently, the centre would provide nearly Rs 200-250 crore for the development of each tourist destination to compete with the tourism market. This money will be used to develop and promote niche products like caravan tourism, wellness tourism, spiritual tourism and religious tourism to boost tourism.


It surely is a reason to cherish for the time being at least!! Whether or not we have actually hit the jackpot only time will tell. For now we are only keeping our fingers crossed that the money comes in right hands and plans are executed on ground not just papers!!
