I recently visited Puri by booking a tour package, IRCTC rail tourism. The main issue is the kind of response we receive from Rail tourism co-ordinator. You do not feel they are providing service, rather a favor given to us. The same indifferent attitude is visible at the hotels which we visited , when we mention that we came in IRCTC tour package . Change in attitude is real need at the grassroot level ,to improve tourism. Good customer service is key .

Please consider introducting Aadhar card for NRI's too as invariably we suffer from want of document proof to avail simple services like obtaining a sim card or a ration card etc. we can outsource this to the agency which is currently performing passport and visa related services. Of course the govt can earn much needed forex from this too and it is convenient for NRI's too.

Non Resident Indians should bring their experiences in Global scenario to educate common people in India, for to relieve ignorance, attraction towards foreign culture, countries, comfort zones etc. can be better found being in India! would be a successful stories shared by NRI's in their mother country.

Dear Sir We appreciate the Visa on Arrival scheme announced on one hand but Government employees including banks and tax departments are required to have NOC to obtain or renew a passport or visit their relatives who are NRIs. The NOC take 6 months for approval and move from office to offices It is sending wrong signals as it gives a feeling that Government and all its undertakings are not trustworthy as government itself does not trust its own employees and all are required to obtain NOC.
