To propel tourism in the Garo Hills and Tura region, the following is necessary: 1. The state government particularly tourism department needs to promote Garo Hills focused campaign nationally and internationally. 2. Tura as the main hub of the region, needs an infrastructure upgrade with luxury hotels, functioning airport, railway and national level highways to efficiently support tourism. I would argue one of the reasons why tourism is lagging behind in this region is because of poor infrastructure and connectivity. 3. I’m afraid homestays are not for everyone and not a key driver for tourism. The government should prioritise opening star hotel in Tura as modern facilities, comfort and convenience matters much for tourism, before promoting homestays.
