## ANSWER

MINISTER OF STATE FOR TOURISM (INDEPENDENT CHARGE)

(SHRI PRAHLAD SINGH PATEL)

(a) to (f): Ministry  of  Tourism  has  identified  Eco  circuit  as  one  of the  fifteen  thematic  circuits  for  development  under  the  Swadesh Darshan Scheme.

The projects under the scheme are identified for development in consultation with the State Governments/UT Administrations and are sanctioned  subject  to  availability  of  funds,  submission  of suitable  detailed  project  reports,  adherence  to  scheme  guidelines and  utilization  of  funds  released  earlier.  Submission  of  project proposals  by  the  State  Governments  and  its  sanctioning  is  a continuous process. As per scheme guidelines, the State Governments  are  required to submit the details of expected employment generation for the projects at the time of sanctioning. The projects under the scheme are at various stages of implementation/completion  and  details  of  employment  generated can only be calculated after its completion and operationalisation. The  projects  once  complete  are  expected  to  enhance  tourist experience and increase tourist footfalls which in turn would help to augment revenue and jobs in tourism sector.

The details of projects sanctioned under the scheme including

Eco Circuit and expenditure incurred are annexed.

Ministry  conducts  Awareness/Sensitization  programmes  for existing  service  providers  in  Tourism  and  Hospitality  sector  under its  scheme  of  Capacity  Building  for  Service  Providers  with  the objective  to  improve  tourist  specific  service  standards  in  the country including hilly and backward areas. Training of Naturalists and eco-guides are covered as one of the field under this programme.

For  Promotion  of  Tourism,  the  Ministry  undertakes  several promotional activities in the domestic and international markets for promotion  of  the  varied  tourism  products  and  destinations  of  the country including Eco tourism. As part of its marketing/ promotional activities, the Ministry produces publicity material and collaterals in English  and  foreign  languages,  annually  releases  print,  electronic and  online  media  campaigns  in  important  and  potential  markets overseas and within the country under the 'Incredible India' brandline. Promotions are also undertaken through the website and Social Media accounts of the Ministry.

The  project  under  the  scheme  are  sanctioned  only  after submission of undertaking by the State Government on the availability of land.
