Shri Padmapani Bora, Managing Director of Assam Tourism Board on Promoting Assam’s Tourism Potential Shri Padmapani Bora, Managing Director of the Assam Tourism Board, at the Assam Tourism Pavilion during OTM 2026. The conversation centers on Assam’s tourism prospects, emphasizing its rich wildlife heritage, including 17 national parks and 19 wildlife sanctuaries, notably Kaziranga National Park, which anchors its identity as a wildlife tourism hotspot. Assam is actively promoting a diversified tourism profile, expanding beyond conventional wildlife tourism to include religious tourism, adventure tourism, tea tourism, golf tourism, and MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions) tourism. Government-backed infrastructure development is a key focus, with new resorts like Postcard and four premium hotels enhancing accommodation options. The development of the new terminal 2 airport in Guwahati is expected to boost connectivity and accessibility, supporting Assam’s vision to become a year-round destination. The state targets both domestic and international markets, leveraging platforms like OTM to engage with international buyers, especially from East Asia and Southeast Asia, including Japan and Korea. Domestic tourism has seen significant growth, doubling in volume compared to pre-COVID times, with strong interest particularly from Maharashtra, Gujarat, and West Bengal. Assam Tourism’s strategy involves strengthening ties with travel operators and tourism boards domestically and internationally to maximize outreach and attract diverse tourist segments. The overall outlook is optimistic, with Assam positioning itself as a multi-faceted, all-season tourism destination. 🔔 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.
