EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
(For Example Only)
(Only brief summary of Project Report)
This project titled, Terrorist Attack: Its Impact on Indian
Tourism has been done after an in-depth analysis of tourism industry
and consequences of terrorism on it. In this project, The researcher has
studied the major terrorist attacks in the past and how the world has
been suffering from it for a long period of time and it has been
discussed that how these attacks have had serious Social and
Economic implications. A primary data collection has been done
through Questionnaires covering the sample of 29 foreign tourists.
Their views about how they feel touring in India, their likings and
dislikings, and the effect of terrorism on their perception towards India
as

tourist

destination

have

been

collected

through

the

questionnaires.
In this report it has been studied the series of terrorist incidents in
India and their short and long term effect on tourism of India. Its effect
has also been interpreted in terms of foreign exchange changes. The
tourist inflow for the past two year (oct-07 to jan-08 and oct-08 to
jan09) has been shown and its fall also interpreted.
The project shows various types of tourism being followed in India viz.
Medical, Adventure tourism, wildlife tourism, pilgrimage tourism, eco
tourism, cultural tourism, and heritage tourism. This project is started
with the Psychology of the European or US tourists and what are the
factors holding them back from visiting India.

The Indian government has taken some initiatives to boost tourist

inflow like Incredible India Program, Bed & Breakfast and Buy 2 get 1
free. A brief about these programs and how these programs have
helped tourism in India has also been provided.
It has been shown that how the recent terrorist attacks in India (Jaipur,
Delhi and Mumbai) have had a negative impact on tourism.
It is concluded that there was not much effect of terrorism on tourism;
rather, the slump is due to the recession in the western countries. The
terrorist attacks usually have a short to medium term impact.
