Prime Minister Narendra Modi, in his weekly ‘Mann Ki Baat’ on Sunday, drew special attention to the upcoming World Tourism Day (on September 27). He said, “Some people view tourism just as a means of touring and travelling but a very big aspect of tourism is related to employment. If any sector generates maximum employment with minimum investment, it is the tourism sector.”

Putting emphasis on how the G20 Summit will help the country’s tourism sector, he said, “The fascination towards India has risen a lot in the last few years and after the successful organisation of G20, the interest of the people of the world towards India has grown further… More than one lakh delegates came to India for G20. They got acquainted with the diversity here; different traditions, different types of cuisines and our heritage. The wonderful experiences that the delegates who came here have carried back with them will further expand tourism.”
