Events
of the day
January
25 : India Tourism day
India Tourism Day on
January 25th is aimed
at increasing awareness
about tourism through
a range of activities.
As an important sector
in the services economy,
“tourism” is increasingly
playing a major role
in contributing to the
overall growth and sustainability
of destinations and
local communities by
creating direct and
indirect jobs. Tourism
brings together people
of different cultures
and regions and fosters
better mutual understanding.
For doing this effectively
and durably, it demands
conditions of peace.
It is, therefore, rightly
said that tourism is
the greatest peace movement
in the world.
