The Hospitality Development and Promotion Board formed under the Tourism Policy 2006, will function as a single window for speedy clearances such as proposals, permits, subsidies and transition.
This was announced by Chhagan Bhujbal, minister for tourism, while inaugurating Hospitality, Food & Tourism India (HFTI).
“There are ample avenues for investment in Maharashtra in the hospitality segment, which need to be explored. Once hoteliers come there, more facilities and infrastructure will be available attracting more tourists,” Bhujbal said.
