Enthusiasm of tourists from across India to visit J&K has not diminished: Amit Shah

Jammu, Feb 7: Amid a setback to the tourism industry due to last year’s Pahalgam terror attack, Union Home Minister Amit Shah said on Saturday that the enthusiasm of tourists from across the country to visit Jammu and Kashmir has not diminished.

Shah was addressing a review meeting in Jammu to assess the progress of development projects in the Union Territory.

“The enthusiasm of tourists from across the country to visit Jammu and Kashmir has not diminished. There is a need for aggressive marketing of Jammu and Kashmir’s tourist destinations in other states to explore the tourism potential available here,” he said.

Shah said the Bharatiya Janata Party-led Centre will provide all possible assistance in the plan to develop new tourist destinations in Jammu and Kashmir. (PTI)
