Homestays, Tigers & Conferences: MP's 3-Point Plan to Become a Tourism Giant Dr Abhay Arvind Bedekar I.A.S, Additional Managing Director of the Madhya Pradesh Tourism Board, during the second day of the Four 2026 event. Abai shares insights on Madhya Pradesh’s tourism initiatives, focusing on the upcoming 2026-2027 season. The state is emphasizing rural homestays and experiential tourism, catering to both domestic and international travelers interested in authentic cultural experiences. Adventure and wildlife tourism are also key priorities, with Madhya Pradesh being notable for its extensive forest cover and unique wildlife, including the only population of cheetahs in India. Dr Abhay highlights their targeted international markets for tourism growth, particularly Spain—due to the Spain-India dual year in 2027—alongside Germany, the UK, Europe broadly, and the United States. Within Madhya Pradesh, the tourism board is promoting key heritage and spiritual sites such as Sanchi Stupa, Khajuraho temples, Bhimbetka rock shelters, and the Mahakal temple in Ujjain, which attracts millions of visitors annually. Finally, the tourism board is working to position Madhya Pradesh as a prominent MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions) destination, leveraging new hotel infrastructure and strategic proposals to boost this segment in coming years. Target source markets for tourism are primarily Spain, in light of the Spain-India dual year in 2027, along with Germany, the UK, Europe, and the United States. Within Madhya Pradesh, the tourism board is focusing on three primary destination clusters: Sanchi, famous for its Buddhist heritage and relics; Khajuraho, renowned for ancient temples and sculptures; and the Mahakal Temple in Ujjain, a major spiritual tourism hub that attracts millions annually. Additionally, the board is prioritizing the development of Madhya Pradesh as a Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions (MICE) tourism hub by supporting infrastructure growth, including new hotel openings targeting MICE clients. Abai expresses optimism about the state’s potential to establish itself firmly in the MICE segment within the next few years. The core themes and strategic directions discussed by Abhay during Fitur 2026, providing a comprehensive understanding of Madhya Pradesh Tourism Board’s plans and priorities for 2026-2027. 🔔 Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more travel insights and destination guides! 🎥 Other Recommended Videos / Playlists https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL8lnsQMrJiEetixtqMjk3x_KBL1rECx-M&si=ApOHJW90uvEXdTiF https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL8lnsQMrJiEclBq3cl9WKaRq4AmMVArVz&si=hV5dEHG4v4mrfuf3 https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL8lnsQMrJiEcGMfdtLwx8U8tNCBcyESy6&si=zQC5cM1qPO62ioXs Travel And Tour World is more than a magazine – it’s a global trade communication platform for the travel and hospitality ecosystem.
