		<description>I agree with quite a few points here.... the hotels/cyber cafes/ etc etc built by slashing away at the forest cover leaves much to be desired... specially since the locals are the once who are LEAST benefitted.... 
on the other hand, tourism brings in much required tourists... and India, with our massive store house of incredible offerings, needs to cash in on the tourism aspect... 
Its a catch 22 situation: 
is there any way that tourism can be promoted without ruining the core characteristics of the area....??? there must be some way... 
the locals should pitch in, in trying to maintain the areas, with the forests and wild life. 
it is their land/heritage. some NGO or any organisations going in to create awareness amongst NOT the URBAN population, but the RURAL areas about the vast opportunities lying out there without ruining the essence of the area....
progress is essential... but so is maintaining the heritage...
what is the way forward...??/</description>
