Karnataka to Formulate Separate Tourism Policy for Coastal Region

Karnataka to Formulate Separate Tourism Policy for Coastal Region

The Deputy Chief Minister of Karnataka, DK Shivakumar, announced that the state will create a special plan to attract more tourists to its coastal areas.

These areas have beautiful beaches, rich history, and good schools, but they aren't as popular with tourists as they could be.

The plan will focus on different types of tourism, like visiting temples, enjoying nature, and exploring historical sites.

Local leaders and the state government will work together to make this plan a reality.

They believe that with the right support, coastal Karnataka can become as popular as Goa for tourists.
