Neermahal, a once-thriving tourist center in the state, now stands as a stark example of neglect and deterioration with visitors expressing disappointment and frustration over the dismal conditions.
The picturesque development of the tourism sector in Neermahal has crumbled, leaving tourists with no facilities and a disheartening experience. Despite being a popular destination attracting visitors from different parts of the state daily, the center is now in a dilapidated state, reminiscent of a tourist hub turned to ashes.
Tourists arriving at Neermahal are greeted with a lack of basic amenities, including drinking water as the water filter is reportedly cleaned only once a year. The sanitation conditions are appalling with no toilet facilities for female tourists, forcing them to face inconvenience during their visit.
A local youth revealed that the committee entrusted with overseeing Neermahal's affair has been playing a passive role contributing to the worsening situation. Despite the state government's promises of developing tourist centers, the reality on the ground paints a different picture with several centers including Neermahal facing neglect and decay.
The poor conditions have sparked anger among visitors, including foreign tourists who, upon witnessing the state of affairs, express disappointment and frustration. The lack of cleanliness and essential facilities raises concerns about the future of tourism in the state.
As the state government emphasizes the development of tourist centers the urgency to address the deteriorating conditions in Neermahal becomes paramount. The question now looms over the initiatives the department will take to revitalize these centers and restore the state's reputation as a tourist-friendly destination. The need for immediate action is evident as the current state of Neermahal threatens to tarnish the state's image in the eyes of both local and international tourists.
