Responsible travel has come a long way, from its original roots in small-scale, nature- and culture-based ecotourism. Today sustainability – environmental, social, and economic – is increasingly recognized as the benchmark for all tourism business, of all sizes, in all destinations, and across all sectors of the industry. In addition, the UN’s 2017 International Year clearly recognizes that sustainable tourism is an important tool for development, most importantly in poor communities and countries.

I have great pleasure in presenting "India Tourism Statistics 2011". The Ministry has been presenting tourism related data on a regular basis and this is the 54th in the series of such publications. This publication contains data on Foreign Tourist Arrivals (FTAs), Foreign Exchange Earnings (FEE) from tourism, domestic tourism, hotel, travel trade and training institutions in the field of travel and tourism. The publication also includes guidelines of the various schemes of the Ministry of Tourism for wider dissemination of the same. During the year 2011, India registered a positive growth of 9.2% over 2010. The growth rate of 9.2% in 2011 for India is very encouraging as compared to UNWTO's estimated growth rate of 5% for the world as a whole in 2011. I am sure that information contained in this publication will be useful for all involved in the travel and tourism industry, including policy makers, administrators and researchers. We would, however, welcome suggestions for improvement in the content and coverage of the publication.
