The recently held ADTOI convention was a huge success, claims Kapur, and now he says that the next step is to spread their wings. “We are in the process of launching a new chapter in Chhattisga­rh. We have done the homework and spadework for that and it will be launched within a few weeks. We are also looking at launching a chapter in Rajasthan.”

While expansion is on the cards, the election too is a huge concern, especially after the legal problems that erupted after last elections. Kapur clarifies, “We did have some legal issues and we are trying to look into that. Modalities are being worked out, and if need be, we will have a relook at the MoA or the constituti­on to have a foolproof election process in the next few months. However, the elections will be held in the next few months, and we would love to have a new team.” Kapur also talked about the meeting they had with

Kapil Misra, Minister, Delhi Tourism, on the roadmap to promote Delhi as a destinatio­n. He also mentioned a few suggestion­s for the government to make Delhi more than a transit hub. “Delhi, till date, has been promoted as a political hub, or for medical treatments, or for transit or come and meet relatives. The first step towards attracting tourists to Delhi is by promoting it as a standalone destinatio­n. The government needs to protect and promote Lutyens Delhi, which is culturally and historical­ly very rich. This, along with monuments in and around the capital should be promoted to domestic tourists along with internatio­nal tourists. Delhi also should have informatio­n offices in other states, especially neighbouri­ng states, so that internatio­nal tourists as well as domestic tourists visit the destinatio­n,” he said.

We are in the process of launching a new chapter in Chhattisga­rh. It will be launched within a few weeks
