This information is crucial for preparing the Tourism Satellite Account and contributes to the Travel and Tourism Development Index prepared by the UNWTO through the Ministry of Tourism, Government of India. Data for the survey would be collected from around 144 rural and 56 urban blocks in the State sample, along with a corresponding Central sample.
