PAATHYA

Sustainability has become the cornerstone of numerous initiatives aimed at rejuvenating our planet, with people everywhere contributing in various ways. While the concept of sustainability is not new, it gained significant attention postCOVID, a pandemic that reshaped our world. In the hospitality sector, sustainability is crucial, with every hotel in Goa implementing measures to enhance the sustainability of their properties. Among them, IHCL, one of the largest hotel chains in Goa, has emerged as a leader through its Paathya initiative. This article delves into Paathya, exploring its broader implications and impact on sustainable hospitality.

What is Paathya?

According to Dr. Anmol Ahluwalia, Area Director – Operations at IHCL, Paathya is derived from the Sanskrit word पथ्य, meaning a path. “Paathya encapsulates our initiatives to lead positive change, aligning with IHCL's core values of trust among all stakeholders, awareness of our ecosystem's needs, and joy at heart. Building on IHCL's century-old legacy, Paathya charts a journey focused on environmental stewardship, social responsibility, excellence in governance, heritage preservation, value chain transformation, and sustainable growth,” Mr. Ahluwalia explains. Celebrating 50 years in Goa, IHCL sees Paathya as the future, emphasizing environmental importance. “Having completed 50 glorious years in Goa, IHCL is forging ahead with Paathya, focusing on environmental stewardship, social responsibility, excellence in governance, heritage preservation, value chain transformation, and sustainable growth,” said Mr. Ahluwalia. He added that the pillars of Paathya are based on Progress, Preserve, Prudent, Promise, Promote, and Partner, which his colleagues will elaborate on in the coming days.
