In the episode, Ms. Prachi Thakur talks about the unified identity of our nation in the eyes of tourists. She explains how in the Tourism industry, only the main things famous across the nation are highlighted time and again. Although there is a great deal of diversity within our geographical boundary, we are not capitalizing on it to the full extent. The tourists don’t actually get to experience most of the regional attractions and cultural practices.
Ms. Thakur also throws light on the fact that the roles in the industry are gender-driven. She illustrates it by stating that females undertake more of the caring role, whereas males usually handle decision-making roles like that of a manager. And how during the pandemic, females working in these care roles were the first ones to lose their source of livelihood.
