Despite a lot of liberalization there is still a lot of red-tape to cut through.
Lack of Infrastructural Development in Tourism Sector
Largest Exhibition Centre in India, Pragati Maidan, needs immediate
refurbishments.
Still not equipped to host any event which has 10000 or more delegate
capacity.
The increasing amount of criminal offences in India has also created a
negative impact .
All inclusive destinations and MICE hubs should be planned and
structured in a futuristic manner.
MoT, along with the centres should promote India’s image as a MICE
Destination overseas through prominent media and publicity
campaigns.
Government should also role out strict safety and security measures for
tourists.
