Summary
Keoladeo National Park, once a site for religious pilgrimage and leisure, is increasingly positioned as a key destination for tourism-driven economic growth. A new government plan aims to boost the local economy by expanding hotel infrastructure, recognizing its potential to generate employment and revenue. This strategic focus on hospitality development could transform Keoladeo into a model for sustainable tourism in UNESCO World Heritage Sites, balancing economic gains with ecological preservation. The study highlights the need for careful planning to ensure that tourism growth does not compromise the park's natural integrity or cultural significance.
