It contributes only minimally to the country's self-employment or GDP. Therefore, if these stories we tell are only told, if they are only repeated, we can reach a lot higher in the field of tourism like Purana Wachan, it does not make sense to repeat it again and again,'' he said, 'for this we have to bring results. All our bodies are here. Agencies should work in a coordinated manner. Ministry of Culture, Tourism and Civil Aviation There are three ministries in some countries. It covers all three pillars.
Minister Pandey said that the government and the private sector should work together to promote tourism.

He said that if the tourists who come to Nepal are given a good welcome, Nepal will be promoted for the promotion of tourism.
