India ranked 39th among 119 countries in travel and tourism development index
Dec-20-2024

The World Economic Forum (WEF) in its Travel and Tourism Development Index (TTDI) 2024 report has showed that India is ranked 39th among 119 countries. In the previous index published in 2021, India was ranked 54th. However, due to a revision in the WEF's methodology, India's 2021 rank was adjusted to 38th place.

This achievement was on the back of improved infrastructure and friendly government policies to boost tourism in the country. The Ministry of Tourism under the schemes of ‘Swadesh Darshan’, ‘National Mission on Pilgrimage Rejuvenation and Spiritual Heritage Augmentation Drive (PRASHAD)’ and ‘Assistance to Central Agencies for Tourism Infrastructure Development’ provides financial assistance to State Governments/Union Territory Administrations/Central Agencies for the development of tourism related infrastructure and facilities at various tourism destinations in the country. 

Besides, the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare has launched India’s official portal for Medical Value Travel (MVT), which is the Advantage Healthcare India portal. It is a ‘One-Stop’ portal developed for the facilitation of information for those who want to avail medical treatment in India from abroad.
