Karnataka Plans Tourism Development for CRZ-Notified Beaches

Karnataka's Tourism Minister, K J George, has asked officials to study all beaches in the state where tourism is allowed under Coastal Regulation Zone (CRZ) rules.

Each beach will get its own special plan for tourism development.

The plan will look at things like roads, existing buildings, how attractive the beach is for tourists, how to protect the environment, and how to create jobs and grow the local economy.

The goal is to make sure tourism grows in a way that is good for both the environment and the people who live there.
