The Governor said that states need to make consistent efforts to better Kerala’s tourism progressand economy.

“A meaningful engagement among the Indian states is important for sustainable and inclusive development of tourism.

This is the right time to further strengthen the cooperation and coordination among the states in the tourism sector for the benefit of everyone,” the Governor said.

Continued restrictions on international flights due to the pandemic have indeed nourished Kerala’s domestic tourism; however, Kerala needs to maintain its warm ties with other states of India for further improvement of the travel industry. “Tourism, apart from being an economic activity, is a cultural experience that transcends borders,” said the Governor.
