Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla has extended his greetings on the occasion of World Tourism Day. In a social media post, Mr Birla said tourism is more than just travelling and sightseeing-it’s an opportunity to learn about and connect with a country’s heritage, culture, nature, and traditions.

 

He added that India, embodying Unity in Diversity, and Rajasthan, with the ethos of Welcome to Our Land, are today the preferred choice of tourists across the globe. Mr Birla emphasised that from forts, palaces, and temples to folk arts, vibrant culture, and warm hospitality, everything captivates the heart.  ‘

 

He further noted that in Rajasthan’s rich heritage, Kota-Bundi and the entire Hadoti region hold a unique identity of their own. Mr Birla said that the beauty of the Chambal, historic forts and palaces, stepwells, paintings, Kota Doria, and its vibrant folk culture touch every soul.
