The Tourism Corporation of Gujarat Limited (TCGL) has opened a new office in Bengaluru. The state’s ‘Khushboo Gujarat Ki’ campaign featuring Bollywood actor Amitabh Bachchan has created a major impact on tourists from Karnataka with substantial interest in destinations like Sasan Gir, Somnath, Dwarka, Kutch and Porbandar.
“There is a growing number of tourist bookings from Karnataka and hence the decision to open a full-fledged office in Bengaluru,” said Sanjay Kaul, Commissioner of Tourism and Managing Director for TCGL.
The state contributes 3.5% tourist share with 54 lakh arrivals in Gujarat.
