While the efforts to promote tourism have been enhanced, one must not ignore the impact of unorganised and uncontrolled growth of tourism on the environment and ecology of various destinations. It has been the endeavour of the Union Ministry of Tourism to formulate a policy that encourages sustainable tourism while underlining creation of environmental, social, economic and climate responsiveness.
Towards achieving the objective of Sustainable Tourism growth, the Union Ministry of Tourism is organising a National Workshop, “Sustainable Tourism Criteria for India” on 27-28th July 2010 in New Delhi. The 6-Session Workshop will aim at evolving a “Sustainable Tourism Criteria for India on the lines of the Global Sustainable Tourism Criteria (GSTC).
