Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Saturday laid emphasis on associating local youths with tourism, saying this will give a major boost to development prospects.
He was speaking at the inaugural function of Uttar Pradesh Travel Mart-2019.
The chief minister said if the tourists are connected with activities in the place they are visiting, then there will be a spurt in development and employment opportunities.
Referring to Dudhwa National Park, Adityanath said, "There are many centres, which along with tourist spots, are also associated with wildlife. Be it Sonbhadra, Bundelkhand or Terai area. Tour operators can play a vital role in linking the tourists with wildlife activities."
