Kaziranga – Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma expressed optimism about the growing potential of Kaziranga as a major tourist destination during the Inland Waterways Development Council (IWDC) meeting. Sarma highlighted the impact that such events could have on the region’s visibility and tourism.
“I think, an event like this and many more will draw the attraction towards Kaziranga because if 200 people are coming today, they will see Kaziranga, they will make more publicity and next 2000 people will come. This will have an effect,” Sarma said, underscoring the importance of global attention to the state’s natural heritage.
Kaziranga, famous for its rich biodiversity and as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is a key highlight for tourists visiting Assam. Sarma’s comments reflect a broader strategy to enhance tourism by leveraging international forums and events to attract more visitors. By showcasing Kaziranga’s unique wildlife and natural beauty, Sarma believes the region will see a significant increase in tourist footfall over time.
