The Ministry of Tourism should play a proactive role in effectively addressing the negative publicity attached to the Union Territory of Jammu & Kashmir as a troubled region, including persuading countries to remove their advisories against the union territory, a Parliamentary panel said in its report.
The panel also noted with regret that even after its recommendation to set up an effective monitoring mechanism, the Ministry, instead of taking effective steps to address the recurring problem of delays and cost overruns in implementation of road network projects in pilgrimage destinations and border towns in J&K, has been taking up the matter with different Ministries ‘as a routine work, more as a ritual.’
