Indore Plans Convention Center at Gandhi Hall
Indore's Gandhi Hall, a well-known building, might become a big meeting place.
The government wants to make it like a fancy conference center, similar to one in Bhopal.
They plan to add modern meeting rooms, shops for tourists, and places to show off exhibits.
Officials are working with experts to keep the building's history while making it useful.
If it happens, Gandhi Hall will become a key spot for events and culture in Indore.
Gandhi Hall in Indore may be transformed into an international-level convention center.
The Madhya Pradesh Tourism Department proposed the plan, aiming for a facility like Bhopal's Kushabhau Thakre Hall.
Union tourism ministry secretary V Vidyavathi was impressed by the proposal.
The development will include state-of-the-art interiors, conferencing facilities, and tourist amenities.
The project involves collaboration with Indore Smart City Project, IMC, and local heritage experts.
