Introduction India is the country with diverse natural and cultural heritage unique to the world. The country is the witness of the existence of prehistoric human settlements; the rise and fall of many civilizations and royal powers; emergence and extinction of many flora and fauna, as well as the development of science and technology since the days immemorial. India is the land of great personalities who contributed immensely in the freedom of India, discovery and development of science, technology, art, architecture, literature and culture. The rich socio- cultural heritage of India can be characterized under two categories material and non- material or tangible and intangible heritage. In tangible heritage we see old remnants, archaeological sites, art, crafts, manuscripts and many more. Intangible heritage includes traditions, music, dance, literature, folklores, fables, rites, rituals, festivals etc. In such a country museums play an important role in preserving and exhibiting the heritage for the knowledge of mankind. No one type or category of museum is enough for portraying the heritage and thus more than hundred types of museums are in India now those preserve and exhibit the diversity of heritage. 2.

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.

  • Contextualizing the Role of CSR Initiatives in Preservation and Conservation of Tangible and Intangible Heritage of India: a Case Analysis of Public Sector Companies
    International Journal of Commerce and Management Research International Journal of Commerce and Management Research ISSN: 2455-1627 Impact Factor: RJIF 5.22 www.managejournal.com Volume 3; Issue 12; December 2017; Page No. 27-29 Contextualizing the role of CSR initiatives in preservation and conservation of tangible and intangible heritage of India: A case analysis of public sector companies Dr. Chandni Sengupta Assistant Professor, Amity School of Liberal Arts, Amity University Haryana, Haryana, India Abstract Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is defined as a concept whereby companies integrate environmental, social, and developmental concerns in their business operations. Corporate firms across the globe have clearly defined their CSR strategies. Most of these firms largely focus on areas of environmental sustainability, health and sanitation, women’s empowerment, workplace ethics, educational initiatives, leadership development, among other areas of community-centric work. Companies have taken keen interest in investing their resources for environmental protection as well as for enhancing the quality of health services. In India, multinationals as well as indigenous firms have been taking keen interest in CSR activities. Most of the firms in India have, like their counterparts in other parts of the world, developed a strategy for implementing their CSR plan. A major part of their strategy is focussed on sustainable development and environmental issues, and to some extent health, women’s empowerment, and community work. An area which has largely remained untouched by business houses is conservation of heritage and culture. Although some companies have exhibited a desire to invest in conserving the dying heritage of India, it has not been taken up as a critical area of CSR investment.
