Nagpur: The Nagpur Residential Hotels Association (NRHA) urged the Maharashtra govt to fully implement the 2024 Tourism Policy.
Renu formally submitted its recommendations and vision document to Prashant Sawai, Deputy Director, Directorate of Tourism, Nagpur.
NRHA president Tejinder Singh Renu submitted recommendations, highlighting the need for an integrated strategy. Despite rich tourism potential, Maharashtra underperforms due to slow policy execution. The policy aims to attract Rs 25,000 crore in investments and create 10 lakh jobs.
Renu formally submitted its recommendations and vision document to Prashant Sawai, Deputy Director, Directorate of Tourism, Nagpur.
NRHA proposes declaring Nagpur as 'Tiger Capital', legalising rooftop restaurants, and launching a tourism app. They also recommend removing the MERC stay on industrial electricity tariff benefits and forming District Tourism Promotion Committees. To track progress, NRHA suggests monitoring tourist footfall, revenue, employment, and hotel occupancy rates.
With proper execution, NRHA believes Maharashtra can become a top-3 tourism destination, driving employment, rural growth, and GDP. The govt appreciated NRHA's efforts, which will contribute to the Vision 2047 document.
