Jaipur , On the initiative of Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot, the Energy Department has issued orders to the tourism and hospitality sector to provide electricity at industrial rate instead of commercial category. This will give a big relief to lakhs of entrepreneurs associated with this sector in the state and further expansion of tourism activities will be possible in the state.
It is noteworthy that Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot had announced to give industry status to this sector in the budget this year, fulfilling the long-standing demand of the tourism and hospitality sector. In compliance with this announcement, orders have been issued to provide electricity at industrial rate to the tourism and hospitality sector.
It is worth mentioning that since 1989 till now, several announcements were made to give industry status to tourism, but it could not be implemented properly. Rajasthan has an important place in the world from the point of view of tourism and has immense potential for expansion of tourism activities. Also, it can create huge employment opportunities directly and indirectly. Keeping these possibilities in mind, Shri Gehlot has given industry status to tourism and hospitality sector in the budget this year and has taken important initiative to provide electricity at industrial rate, showing commitment towards realizing this announcement on the ground.
