  • Shiva's Waterfront Temples
    Shiva’s Waterfront Temples: Reimagining the Sacred Architecture of India’s Deccan Region Subhashini Kaligotla Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2015 © 2015 Subhashini Kaligotla All rights reserved ABSTRACT Shiva’s Waterfront Temples: Reimagining the Sacred Architecture of India’s Deccan Region Subhashini Kaligotla This dissertation examines Deccan India’s earliest surviving stone constructions, which were founded during the 6th through the 8th centuries and are known for their unparalleled formal eclecticism. Whereas past scholarship explains their heterogeneous formal character as an organic outcome of the Deccan’s “borderland” location between north India and south India, my study challenges the very conceptualization of the Deccan temple within a binary taxonomy that recognizes only northern and southern temple types. Rejecting the passivity implied by the borderland metaphor, I emphasize the role of human agents—particularly architects and makers—in establishing a dialectic between the north Indian and the south Indian architectural systems in the Deccan’s built worlds and built spaces. Secondly, by adopting the Deccan temple cluster as an analytical category in its own right, the present work contributes to the still developing field of landscape studies of the premodern Deccan. I read traditional art-historical evidence—the built environment, sculpture, and stone and copperplate inscriptions—alongside discursive treatments of landscape cultures and phenomenological and experiential perspectives. As a result, I am able to present hitherto unexamined aspects of the cluster’s spatial arrangement: the interrelationships between structures and the ways those relationships influence ritual and processional movements, as well as the symbolic, locative, and organizing role played by water bodies.

  • Incredible India’ Campaign
    Preface This article investigates the ‘Incredible India’ campaign. From the author’s initial encounter with this particular campaign an indescribable attraction was experienced. Thus, the performer of this study developed firm faith in the process of executing this research. It all commenced with a university course named ‘Strategic Mass Communication’ taught by Dr. Etienne Augé at the Erasmus University which is located in Rotterdam. In addition to Dr. Augé thought provoking teachings, the subject matters that were included in the course curriculum were valued by the author of this master’s thesis as decisive in establishing this academic article. During one of the sessions of this course, the researcher of this study read about the concept of ‘nation branding’. The executer of this research study was completely unfamiliar to the concept, yet a direct interest was aroused. As a consequence of this raise in interest, the author of this master’s thesis commenced with an exploration of the concept. The end result was complete amazement. Never before was the researcher of this study consciously aware of the fact that nations can be branded. Just imagine. In contemporary society, almost everyone associates him or herself with the brand of a particular (commercial or non-commercial) organization. The brand of a country, however, is hardly associated with, by the majority of people globally. Perhaps, that might also not be the purpose of a country’s brand. Yet, many people around the world communicate beliefs and opinions, in other words the reputation, of a country they visited. The result of this form of communication is the creation of a particular image about a particular country.

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. I am pleased to present the FICCI Knowledge Report “Indian Tourism Infrastructure : Investment Opportunities & Challenges” which highlights the current scenario, key facts and figures pertaining to the tourism sector in India.

  • Tourism Development in Gujarat: Opportunities
    International Journal of Advanced Research in Commerce, Management & Social Science (IJARCMSS) 213 ISSN : 2581-7930, Impact Factor : 5.260 , Volume 03, No. 04, October - December, 2020, pp 213-217 TOURISM DEVELOPMENT IN GUJARAT: OPPORTUNITIES Dr. Unnati Y. Parmar ABSTRACT Tourism is the act of travel mainly for relaxation and purposes. WTO (World Trade Organization) defines tourists as the people who “travel to and stay in places outside their usual environment for not more than one consecutive year for leisure, business, recreation and other purposes not related to the exercise of an activity remunerated from within the place visited.” Tourism development is very crucial for every country. The tourism industry gives a massive contribution to the GDP of any country with foreign currencies. Thus, the researcher has been selected as a research topic of Tourism Development. The researcher has been selected as a sample as the Gujarat state of India for a research work. The researcher has been selected as secondary data from various websites. The researcher has been used five parameters for data analysis, which define Gujarat Tourism Development. These parameters are: 1) Contribution of tourism to GDP of Gujarat, 2) Foreign tourists of Gujarat, 3) Domestic tourists of Gujarat, 4) Amount released under Swadesh Darshan Scheme for Gujarat, 5) Amount released under PRASAD Scheme for Gujarat. For hypothesis testing, the Chi-square test would be applied. A period of the study work is of 4 years from 2016-17 to 2019-20. The sample size is to be selected randomly and limited only to the Gujarat state. It is analytical research work.

    Ministry of Tourism Government of India “Adopt a Heritage” ‘Apni Dharohar, Apni Pehchaan’ Project for Development of Tourist Friendly Destinations September 2017 PROJECT GUIDELINES WITH MOU www. adoptaheritage.in Page 1 of 40 GOVERNMENT OF INDIA MINISTRY OF TOURISM ADOPT A HERITAGE ‘Apni Dharohar, Apni Pehchaan’ Project for Development of Tourist Friendly Destinations September 2017 1 Rationale India has always been renowned for its rich cultural heritage. India’s glorious past and cultural diversity make a potent blend which attracts millions of tourists each year to its tourist destinations. India's rich heritage is abundantly reflected in the form of numerous temples, palaces, monuments, forts etc. This has led to the increase in India's tourism particularly in the heritage sites. Tourism in India has registered a considerable growth in the last few years, ever since additional initiatives were taken by the government of India to boost India’s image as a destination for tourism. This also comes in the form of promotion of tourism sector as a brand name Incredible India. The heritage sites are facing common challenges primarily related to the creation and operations and maintenance of the various infrastructural as well as service assets. There is a need to develop a robust mechanism for the provision of basic amenities on an immediate basis and advanced amenities on a long term basis. This project is envisioned to synergize with other Infrastructure development schemes in collaboration with Ministry of Culture and other Ministries, with the idea of positioning tourism as a driving force for targeting more Foreign Tourist Arrivals as well as Domestic Tourist Arrivals, building synergy in the development of amenities across the identified heritage sites, enhancing overall tourist experience and economic development of the region.

    Amity Research Journal of Tourism, Aviation and Hospitality Vol. 02, issue 02, July-Dec 2017 Is Incredible India Campaign a reason for growth in tourism? A case study of Madhya Pradesh Richa Mishra Research Scholar, Amity Institute of Travel and Tourism, Amity University, Noida Email: [email protected] Prof. (Dr.) M. Sajnani Dean & Head of the Department, Amity Institute of Travel and Tourism, Amity University, Noida Email: [email protected] Abstract Madhya Pradesh rightly known as the heart of Incredible India has so much to offer to the Indian tourism industry. The state is well equipped with three UNESCO world heritage sites, nine national parks and 25 wildlife sanctuaries along with several other diverse tourism attractions. Its potential has been traced only in the last decade with the state government taking some serious measures towards marketing the tourism potential of the state and launching its new tourism policy, claiming to be one of the most progressive policies in the country. The state government following the footsteps of the central government appointed the same marketing firm Ogilvy & Mather which designed the ―Incredible India Campaign‖ the first marketing campaign of its kind by the government of India; to design an advertising campaign for Madhya Pradesh creating a brand image of the state resulting in an increase in the tourist‘s inflow. The paper attempts to study the factors which have given rise to the popularity of Madhya Pradesh state as a tourist destination in the past ten years. The case study also aims at an in-depth analysis of how the advertising campaign has helped the growth of tourism in the state.
