INDIAN TOURISM INFRASTRUCTURE - Investment Opportunities & Challenges 3 4 INDIAN TOURISM INFRASTRUCTURE - Investment Opportunities & Challenges FOREWORD Travel and tourism, the largest service industry in India was worth US$234bn in 2018 – a 19% year- on-year increase – the third largest foreign exchange earner for India with a 17.9% growth in Foreign Exchange Earnings (in Rupee Terms) in March 2018 over March 2017. According to The World Travel and Tourism Council, tourism generated ₹16.91 lakh crore (US$240 billion) or 9.2% of India’s GDP in 2018 and supported 42.673 million jobs, 8.1% of its total employment. The sector is predicted to grow at an annual rate of 6.9% to ₹32.05 lakh crore (US$460 billion) by 2028 (9.9% of GDP). The Ministry has been actively working towards the development of quality tourism infrastructure at various tourist destinations and circuits in the States / Union Territories by sanctioning expenditure budgets across schemes like SWADESH DARSHAN and PRASHAD. The Ministry of Tourism has been actively promoting India as a 365 days tourist destination with the introduction of niche tourism products in the country like Cruise, Adventure, Medical, Wellness, Golf, Polo, MICE Tourism, Eco-tourism, Film Tourism, Sustainable Tourism, etc. to overcome ‘seasonality’ challenge in tourism.

Introduction Kakatiyas- an indigenous Telugu dynasty ruled over the Andhradesa consisting of modern states of Telangana and Andhra Pradesh from 10th century AD to the first quarter of 14th century AD. The name ‘Kakatiya’ is derived from goddess Kakati- a mother goddess Durga, venerated by the dynasty. Gunadya Rashtrakuta was the first known personality of the Kakatiya clan. He was the commander of the Rashtrakuta Krishna II who died in the battlefield while fighting with the Eastern Chalukyas. King Krishna II, very pleased with Gundaya’s loyal service towards him, rewarded Ereya, Gunadya’s son with the governorship of the Korivi region. Kakatiyas were the feudatories of Rashtrakuta kings upto 10th century AD after which they were overthrown by the Kalyana Chalukyas. Kakatiyas then became the feudatories or samanthas of Kalyana Chalukyans. The Kakatiya rulers Beta I (AD 996–1051), Prola I (AD 1052–1076), Beta II (AD 1076–1108), Durgaraja (AD 1108–1116) and Prola II (AD 1116– 1157) served the Kalyana Chalukyas until the collapse of Chalukya empire during Tailapa III’s reign.

  • 96. an Overview of Art and Culture in Telangana
    Mukt Shabd Journal ISSN NO : 2347-3150 An overview of Art and Culture in Telangana *Thonty Devanna, Asst.Professor of History, Girraj.Govt.College(A), Nizamabad,Telangana ABSTRACT Telangana, due to its geographical location, is the realm where two diverse cultures from the north and the south of the country merge and create a composite culture region with diverse cultural, social and economic backgrounds. Thus, Telangana links the north and south of India. Hyderabad, the state capital, is a classic example of Telangana heritage, exemplified by a number of archeological monuments such as the Charminar, the Golkonda Fort, Mecca Masjid, the Sri Chennakesava Swamy Temple, UjjainiMahankaali Temple and Hussain Sagar, to quote a few. Other important heritage sites in Telangana, apart from Hyderabad, are Adilabad, Karimnager, Khammam, Mahabubnagar, Medak, Nalgonda, Nizamabad and Warangal. Each of these has several heritage monuments that emerged during the state's long history.Culture in Telangana is a combination of customs adopted from Persian traditions during the rule of Moghuls and Nizams and more dominantly South Indian customs. Thus ,it has a very rich culture with Telugu culture amalgamated within the fabric of the society. Telangana is potential lies in its culture that blends cultural customs from Persian traditions embedded during Moghuls, QutubShahis and Nizams rule with influential and mainly South Indian customs and traditions. The State has a rich tradition in classical music. It has a rich painting and folk arts such as Burrakatha, shadow puppet show, and Perini Shiva Tandavam, Gusadi Dance, Kolatam, Bonalu, Kite Festival, etc. This paper examine the an overview of art and culture in Telangana State.

PHONE: 524200,7510455 PREFACE I am happy to place before the scholars the Indian Archaeology 1987-88—A Review not very long after the publication of the previous issue. We are making efforts to bring the publication of the Review up to date; this, however, would depend on timely submission of material by contributors. It has been our experience that, in many cases, several reminders have to be given for sending material to us for inclusion in the Review which results in delay of its publication. I am sure, with the cooperation of different institutions and the State Departments of Archaeology and Museums and my own colleagues in different Branches and Circles of the Survey it would be possible for us to maintain regularity of its publication. The present issue of the Review is more voluminous than the previous ones and thus reflects also increased activities in different fields of archaeology. Out of several excavations reported in this issue, I may mention the work at Banawali, Thanesar, Sanghol, Hampi, Sannathi, Daulatabad, Lalitagiri, Udaigiri, Fatehpur Sikri, Sravasti, Balikeshwar, Chandel, Harsud, etc. by the Survey, at Kuntasi jointly by the Deccan College, Pune, and the Gujarat State Department of Archaeology, at Mangalkot by the University of Calcutta, at Kotasur by the Visvabharati, Maihar by the Allahabad University, Ganeshwar by the Department of Archaeology and Museums, Rajasthan State and at Shikarpur by the Department of Archaeology, Government of Gujarat.

    Section I REINVENTING TELANGANA Socio Economic Outlook 2016 1 Socio Economic Outlook 2016 2 Reinventing Telangana: The Way Forward Chapter1 “The woods are lovely, dark and deep, But I have promises to keep, And miles to go before I sleep, And miles to go before I sleep.” - Robert Frost Telangana, the youngest State in the Union of India, was the result of a prolonged struggle, actively participated by the people cutting across all sections, for a new life of hopes and aspirations. The genesis of the movement can be traced to a deliberate neglect of Telangana in the combined State of Andhra Pradesh, in most areas such as, water resources, fi nance and employment opportunities, popularly known as, “Neellu, Nidhulu, Niyaamakaalu.” I. The Legacy of Neglect The assessment of past expenditure has clearly established the fact that there has been signifi cant under- spending in Telangana, relative to its revenue generation. As per the report of the Lalit Committee appointed by the Government of India in 1969, the overall budgetary surplus of Telangana during 1956 to 1969, was about Rs. 85.83 crore, though the present value of this is much more in terms of economic loss along with loss of several direct and indirect benefi ts in terms of income, employment and public revenues. This report was analysed by the noted economist Prof. CH. Hanumantha Rao in his book entitled, Regional Disparities, Smaller States and Statehood for Telangana, to quantify the neglect of Telangana area during this period. Based on the district-wise revenue receipts and expenditure during the years 2004-05 to 2012-13, the Fourteenth Finance Commission came to a broad conclusion that Telangana districts accounted for 49.5 percent of resources raised by the combined State of Andhra Pradesh, of which only 38.5 percent of the revenue was spent in Telangana area.
