​
Countries like China have moved way ahead of India in several sectors including tourism and hospitality. Even smaller countries like Malaysia, Thailand and Singapore are earning a lot through this industry.
​
India has also realized the importance of the hospitality sector and the Central Government, along with the State Governments, are now planning to revive the tourism, hotel and hospitality industry.
