 "Diu administration likely to tie up with Gujarat for tourism")
"The administration of Union Territories (UTs) has been taking efforts to make Diu a tourism hub. We will tie up with the Gujarat government so that tourists who come to visit the Asiatic lions' at Gir sanctuary can be attracted to Diu," Administrator of Diu, Daman Ashish Kundra said.
"The tourists, after visiting Gir sanctuary, can come to Diu for a stay. The administration will provide them tents at the sea-beach," he said.If such arrangements are provided then Diu will also get the benefits from the flow of tourists in Gujarat, Kundra said.
He further said that Diu is known as 'Mini- Goa' amongst the tourists from Gujarat, on the other hand Gir is also a tourism hot-spot, if influx of tourists increases in Gir, Diu will also get its benefit.The Union Territory of Diu is at about 110 kms from the Asiatic lions' sanctuary in Gir in Gir Somnath district in Gujarat.
