Tourism has potential to unite people, PM to G20 Tourism Ministers

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday addressed the G20 Tourism Ministers meet in Goa via video message and said unlike terrorism, tourism has the potential to unite people from all walks of life, creating a harmonious society.

He said Indian ancient scriptures have a saying Atithi Devo Bhavah, meaning guest is god. “And, that is our approach to tourism. Our tourism is not just about sightseeing. It is an immersive experience. Whether it is music or food, arts or culture, the diversity of India is truly majestic,” he said.

From the high Himalayas to dense Forests, from dry deserts to beautiful beaches, from adventure sports to meditation retreats, India has something for everyone, he said.

“During our G20 Presidency, we are organizing nearly 200 meetings in 100 different locations all over India. If you ask your friends who have already visited India for these meetings, I am sure that no two experiences will be alike,” he said.
