MUMBAI: Union tourism minister K Chiranjeevi has urged the state governments and Union Territories to instate the cadre of tourist police in one form or other.

Speaking at the conference on of state tourism ministers in New Delhi, Chiranjeevi said, "This can be done either by borrowing some companies from the police department or hiring ex-servicemen or home guards. Tourist police can be deployed visibly in places where such incidents can happen."

The minister also demanded speedy trial of the accused to ensure faster justice to the victims. He said, "We must show our sensitivity towards the feelings of the victim and respect their dignity and privacy."

Referring to the recent incidents of assault on women tourists which has seriously damaged our image the minister said, "It is not only important that we provide security to the tourists but it is also important that we must instil a sense of confidence in them".

Chiranjeevi said the second important issue which has become a serious cause of concern and due to which we are losing business to other markets is cleanliness and hygiene. He said heaps of garbage at tourist destinations, open defecation at the beaches, morning soils on the railway tracks, etc, discourage the tourists.

All the states and UT administrations must declare various tourist destinations as plastic free, ensure regular removal of garbage, build proper toilets to check open defecation and sensitise the community about the need to keep the destinations clean, said Chiranjeevi.
