Ministry of Tourism's Impact on Employment and Livelihoods
The Ministry of Tourism has launched various schemes, including Swadesh Darshan and its revamped version Swadesh Darshan 2.0, to develop tourism infrastructure and create job opportunities in India. These initiatives have sanctioned numerous projects aimed at sustainable tourism and local community empowerment. A third-party assessment indicated that these schemes have successfully provided livelihood opportunities, although recent data on employment generated is lacking. The tourism sector has seen a gradual increase in job numbers, with training programs also contributing to skill development and employment.
