Asked on visa restrictions on tourists, he said that such rule would be resolved soon and India is going to remove the barrier. The visa restrictions on Tourists prohibits a tourist from revisiting India within two months of the first visit. ...

Great that this info is cropping up in different links. Might even get into the Navhind Times soon!!

Thanks for finding these, Andy & Jill.

He has only held the position of Tourism Minister since January, but is obviously the right guy to be pushing for this.

Let's hope............


Slightly off-thread, but for anyone interested in cinema & India, plse do a Google search on The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel on IMDB

The trailers look good & they might even bring in a visa for retirees?????

Cheers

The trailer is really funny. I must go and see the rest of the film. Doubt if it will lead to visas for retirees though.

This 'retirement visa' or x visa for property owners is never going to happen is it. I think the Indian Government are keeping us in our place - India belongs to us now, we'll decide when you come and when you go.

I agree, but will the powers that be take heed? Or will the cracks just be papered over as usual? Bit like the road patching in Goa
