Jaipur: Eliminating Provisions for Land Change in Tourism Policy 2007 and 2015 and Plan Master 2025, a policy is still difficult to understand.
Now with the tourism industry coming under severe pressure due to Covid-19 pandemic, hotel allocations in the housing area struggling to stay alive.
Because the status of their existing land is housing, this budgeting hotel, which accounts for 80% of room inventory in the city, cannot raise money and restart operations.
At various levels of government, including the main secretary, the benefits of changes in land use have been valued and proposed.
Udh also prepares the final draft.
But so far, the policy of changing land use from allied hotels has not been launched.
“We want the government to tell the policy as soon as possible because many budget hotels are in serious trouble conditions due to lack of business.
These hotels cannot raise money and pay staff and other fixed costs,” said AC Maini, Patron of Hotel Association of Jaipur .
Maini said while the domestic tourist movement began, currently locked up at resorts and weekend tourists.
“Association hotels don’t benefit from the movement of tourists today.
Unless the volume of tourists increases, hotels hang out will not get a business,” Maini added.
He said the hotel industry was forced to pay fixed fees for electricity, and it was also at a very high commercial level.
“We have been declared as industry in 1989, but the benefits are not expanded to the hotel allanggated.” He said people needed capital but the bank did not lend to the hotel allocated because they were built in the land category.
“That’s why urging that UDH allows changes in land use as soon as possible without many hotels will ride the stomach,” he added.
Ranvijay Singh, Joint Secretary Association, Hotel and Restaurant Rajasthan said that most of the hotel was concentrated in and around the bus station and the train station and they were 40 years old.
Singh said, “The government has not provided a meaningful stimulus for the hotel industry.
But they can do it by announcing policies that will not cause additional fiscal burden on the country, but increases the tax income.”
