He was speaking at the inauguration of university-level history workshop on tourism at Maharani’s Arts and Commerce College here on Monday. Mentioning that the city was renowned for tourism, he said the workshop would help lecturers as tourism is an integral part of our lives. In order to bring out tourism in the form of a book, it takes 60 years. Tourism helps in the overall development of society.
