In the first nine months of this year, Nagaland witnessed the visit of 30,956 domestic tourists and 1,437 visitors from overseas, as per the data shared by the Directorate of Tourism.
An official informed Nagaland Post on Monday that the information regarding tourist visits for the months of October and November were still pending, as data from the districts had not been received yet.
The lack of an effective ticketing system to document the visits of tourists and the specific locations they explore, he admitted that maintaining a comprehensive record of visitors was a challenge. He said that the department would address this issue by introducing capacity-building initiatives for tourists soon.
