| December 21, 2009 | Selja inaugurates Hunar Se Rozgar through hotels in Delhi | | New Delhi: Minister for Tourism Kumari Selja inaugurated the Hunar Se
Rozgar through hotels programme here today. The programme aims at training young aspirants for hotel trades. Speaking
on the occasion, Selja said we are now witnessing the revival of the global economy
and it is believed that the worst is now behind us. " Tourism in India is also
experiencing good times with a great spurt in in-bound and domestic traffic.
Hotels from major travel destinations in India are registering high occupancy.
The challenge now is to increase seat capacity and rooms on offer," she added.
She also said an overall change both in attitude and approach is essential to
not only welcome our visitors but also to provide them with correct information
and guidance at every stage of interaction, whether it be from the autorickshaw
drivers, taxi drivers, airport or railway staff. Selja further said from the combined
training capabilities currently available in the country, we are only able to
provide 12000 trained personnel for absorption in the Hospitality related enterprises
against the existing demand for over two lakh trained manpower annually. "Globally,
the trend is to associate the private hospitality associations who are involved
in the process of training," she added. The course curriculum for Hunar Se Rozgar
programme has been developed by the National Council for Hotel Management and
Catering Technology and would be delivered by leading hotels of Delhi under their
Corporate Social Responsibility initiative. Under the programme, seven participating
hotels in New Delhi are The Ashok, Crowne Plaza-Delhi, ITCWelcomgroup, The Lalit,
The Oberoi, The Park and The Taj Hotels. | |
