IAS Sachin Kurve Unveils Uttarakhand's Sustainable Tourism Roadmap

Lodged in the lap of the Himalayas, Uttarakhand stands as a testament to nature's splendour, boasting majestic peaks, lush forests, and sacred rivers. However, not only has it enamoured travellers with its beauty but also with one-of-a-kind experiences, which will soon include India's first-ever gyrocopter safari service. Moreover, Uttarakhand has also gained recognition for being a prime adventure destination, winning the "Best Adventure Tourism State in India" award at ATOAI 2023. Amidst this picturesque panorama, Shri Sachin Kurve holds a pivotal role. With a passion for harnessing the state's tourism potential, Kurve's leadership embodies a commitment to showcase Uttarakhand's diverse cultural heritage, adventure opportunities, and ecotourism initiatives.

The Way Home

“We comfort ourselves by reliving memories of protection. Something closed must retain our memories, while leaving them their original value as images.
