    International Journal of Multidisciplinary Approach and Studies ISSN NO:: 2348 – 537X Analyzing Resource Potential for Nature Based Tourism: A Case Study of the State of Himachal Pradesh (India) Punit Gautam Associate Professor, Department of Tourism and Hotel Management, North-Eastern Hill University, Shillong, Meghalaya (India) ―Potential‖ broadly insinuates something promising but not yet (fully) exploited; it symbolizes the sum total of qualitative and quantitative values of the given resources on which the degree and extent of its exploitability depends (Kandari, 1984). In the context of tourism, assessing the resource potential in quantitative terms is highly complex process, if not impossible, as it involves the physical, psychological and spiritual demands on the people belonging to diverse geographical, socio-cultural and economic backgrounds who travel under different motives, interests, preferences and immediate needs. To quote Kandari (1984), ―potential for tourism development in any area depends on the availability of recreational resources in addition to the factors like climate, seasons, accessibility, proximity to market, political stability, state of economy and general infrastructure, quality of natural environment, attitude of the local people, travel trade entrepreneurs and tourism planners, the existing tourist plant facilities and the degree to which they can be further developed within the prevailing limitations of natural, cultural and financial environments.

That this resurvey happens to be the first study undertaken in the process of revival of continuous village studies is a matter of pleasure for AERC, Himachal Pradesh University, Shimla-5. Revival of continuous village studies after their discontinuation for some time shows the concern of Ministry of Agriculture & Farmers Welfare towards the present agrarian crisis in the country and will go a long way in using these villages as socio-economic research observatories. The invitation of Shri P.C. Bodh, Adviser, Agro-Economic Research, DAC&FW towards this is appreciable. The study is also important from the perspective of covering a unique village in Himachal Pradesh which is undergoing fast socio-economic change in its rather primitive existence for long time and the study will reveal the rural dynamics that have affected the village life during a quarter of a century, since 1991-92, when last time it was studied by AERC, Himachal Pradesh University, Shimla-5.
