CONCLUSION
I think tourism sector is considered as very essential factor for the economic improvement of Ranchi. It is one of
the greatest rising and flowishing industries of the globe. Ranchi is really a great example for the enceptional to
the development and ; think tourism is the next main foreign enchange earner in Ranchi.
Ranchi which has got a several scenic beauty and a hub of waterfall like Dasssam fall, Hundru fall, Janha all are
still unknown by the people. It has got many potential for development but government is not taking up laws,
sche4mes and action to make it s better place. As Ranchi is in the plaeteau area, it can be developed as a hill stations. It has got a visitor - freindly traditions varied life styles and cultural heritage and colourful fair and
festivals held abiding attractions for the tourists but they are yet to be developed and innovate.
Some of the major constraint in the development of tourism in India is the non- availability of adequate
infrastructure including adequate air seat capacity, accessibility to tourist destinations, accommodation and
trained manpower in sufficient number, Transportation system is also not well developed. Government
should take up plans and action to develop it as a Tourist place. In some places, parks poor hygieic
conditions and incidents of touting and harassment of tourists in some places are factors that contribute to
poor visitor experience.
Tourism in Ranchi can be a great opportunity for generating Income and Employment, it will help in
increasing the country's "G.D.P." It will also be a "foreign Exchange Earning."
Tourism in Ranchi will also help "Preservation of National Heritage and Environment" but this concern is also
not taken place by the government. Ranchi has that greenery and mesmerising, alluring scene which
promote peace and stability but the government is not taking action regarding this.
