J&K Window : Boost to Tourism in the Valley
The year 2011 gave Jammu and Kashmir more than a million reasons to reclaim pride of place on India's tourism map. The number of sightseers to the once trouble-torn state crossed a record 10 lakh and the upswing is because of a massive 60 per cent annual dip in violence in the state. Militancy-related incidents are now at their lowest in 22 years. Around 4.46 lakh travellers flocked to Jammu and Kashmir in 2008 and the corresponding figure for 2009 was 4.75 lakh. In 2010, the state pulled off a late revival with 5.75 lakh tourists despite the ugly violence triggered by stone-pelting protests during the summer.
do you know?:Special Economic Zones
What is the policy regulating Special Economic Zones?
India was one of the first in Asia to recognize the effectiveness of the Export Processing Zone (EPZ) model in promoting exports, with Asia's first EPZ set up in Kandla in 1965. With a view to overcome the shortcomings experienced on account of the multiplicity of controls and clearances; absence of world-class infrastructure, and an unstable fiscal regime and with a view to attract larger foreign investments in India, the Special Economic Zones (SEZs) Policy was announced in April 2000.
