Green Push for Himachal: Eco-Tourism Takes Centre Stage
Himachal Pradesh Deputy Chief Whip, Mr. Pathania, highlighted the state’s commitment to sustainable tourism at the recent NCSL summit. His address focused on innovative eco-tourism projects in Dharamsala.
The initiative emphasizes environmentally conscious development, aiming to minimise the impact of tourism on the fragile Himalayan ecosystem. This includes exploring ropeways and water sports while adhering to stringent green development principles.
The state government’s strategy aims to balance economic growth with environmental protection, a crucial step in mitigating the effects of climate change in the region. This proactive approach could serve as a model for other hill states facing similar challenges.
Mr. Pathania’s presentation underscores the growing importance of sustainable practices in the tourism sector, particularly in ecologically sensitive areas like the Himalayas. The success of this initiative will be crucial not only for Himachal Pradesh’s economy but also for the preservation of its natural beauty for future generations.
