TREND OF TOURISM IN BHITARKANIKA, ODISHA

Dr. Sridhar Samal

Abstract :

 The state of odisha presents a paradoxical picture of poverty amongst plenty. In spite of successful plan periods, some sectors continue to be under–developed. Despite being endowed with vast tourism potential and natural resources, the state continues to be one of the least developed states of India. Although during the last 50 years of planned development, it has achieved substantial progress in some selected sectors. Some other potential sectors like tourism: a fundamental factor for sustainable development. Hence, the tourism planners have to re–examine and react in a manner which will ensure sustainable tourism development without compromising the environment and community. With this objective, the present researcher will undertake a study on “Bhitarkanika” to identify tourism potentials in terms of natural and cultural resources and suggest measures for ensuring sustainable tourism development in the region under study. The study is based on the data collected through primary and secondary sources most of which have been published.
