Sahai highlighted that there are no hoardings on Nandani – katra road for showcasing Jammu’s Tourist destinations so that yatris could see and plan to visit Jammu’s tourist destinations . Sahai said there should be vibrant promotion through led screens of video’s of Jammu’s tourist destinations in katra bazars , ban ganga to bhawan road , Railaway station of katra etc.

Sahai said Yatra slip Counters have all the data Eg: Mobile Number , Email ,address etc. of the visiting Pilgrims  , Detailed document regarding Jammu’s attractions  should be sent on pilgrims whatsapp , email , Physical Pamphlets should be distributed to  yatris with links of bookings defined in the message so that it could be easier to plan for yatri’s to prolong their stay in Jammu .
