Domestic tourist visits to the eight north eastern states rose from 95.65 lakh in 2019 to what figure in 2025?
- A.1.21 crore
- B.1.35 crore
- C.1.51 crore
- D.1.84 crore
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is 1.51 crore. At the inauguration of the mart the Union Tourism Minister gave the growth of tourism in the region in plain numbers: domestic tourist visits to the eight north eastern states stood at 95.65 lakh in 2019 and reached 1.51 crore in 2025, which works out to a rise of roughly 58 per cent over those six years. He linked that growth to better connectivity and to the money put into tourism infrastructure, pointing to 16 projects worth Rs 1,309 crore under Swadesh Darshan 1.0, 17 projects worth Rs 564 crore under Swadesh Darshan 2.0 and ten tourism routes supported under the Regional Connectivity Scheme, UDAN. Options A, B and D are wrong because none of those figures was given for 2025; only 1.51 crore was stated, and any lower or higher number would not match the roughly 58 per cent growth that was announced alongside it.
