The Odisha Tourism will host a National Tourism Conference on January 23 and 24 at the Marine Drive Eco Retreat at Konark with an objective of building strategic Centre-State and inter-State partnership for boosting sustainable tourism. The conference will be organised in association with the FICCI.
“Under the leadership Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik, the Government of Odisha has always emphasised that East and Northeast India in particular will greatly benefit from best practices in cooperative federalism in tourism and hospitality. High spending tourists seek long stays and diverse experiences. If we can jointly curate circuits and collaboratively devise strategies to refine tourism across interState borders, we will all win. The objective of the conference is to formulate such a shared vision,” said Tourism Minister Jyoti Prakash Panigrahi.
