To give a big push to the tourism sector, the Government is formulating a new scheme that could see a quantum jump in the funds being made available for infrastructure development at tourism sites. The new scheme being drawn up by the Ministry of Tourism and Planning Commission proposes providing up to Rs 50 crore to every tourist project identified. The Ministry hopes to fund between 10-15 such projects annually, officials said.
