The Governor of Arunachal Pradesh Brig. (Dr.) B.D. Mishra (Retd.) met the Union Minister of State (Tourism) K.J. Alphons at New Delhi on 20th September 2018. They discussed on specific issues for enhancing and promoting Tourism in Arunachal Pradesh.
The Governor, who is on an official visit to the National Capital New Delhi emphasised on holistic approach in harnessing the tourism potential of Arunachal Pradesh.
The Governor requested the Tourism Minister for commissioning eco friendly, tourist friendly tourism and socially beneficial projects in Arunachal Pradesh.
As a follow up action of his recent meeting with Head Priest of Parasuram Kund and his earlier visit to the sacred Kund, the Governor impressed upon the Minister for its overall holistic development to promote spiritualism and age-old values, while keeping the Indian culture and traditions of the Kund undisturbed.
Sharing his experience, climbing 400 plus steep steps down to the Kund from the hilltop near the temple premise, the Governor said that the need of the time is to facilitate the aged pilgrims and women to perform their ‘Pooja’ with convenience and safety, so that they can carry back good experience from the pilgrimage, the Governor emphasized. He suggested for appropriate provision of the holy water in well approachable Kunds and also with special care for the exclusiveness for women pilgrims.
