Read about the Assam Tourism (Development and Registration) Bill, 2024 introduced by the Assam government to regulate and revitalize the tourism industry of the state. Explore the comprehensive legal framework, penalties for offences, and prohibition of begging and hawking around tourist sites.
However, as per the Act, only hotels and lodges can be mandated to provide free access to toilets and drinking water. Unless state specific laws, like in South Delhi and Karnataka, direct even restaurants and eateries to do so.
BHUBANESWAR: The commissionerate police are all set to launch a mobile application for hoteliers to help them share information about their guests wit.

Among the films to watch in 2021 is Kaagaz, a biographical drama directed by Satish Kaushik that documents the tribulations of a man called Lal Bihari. This gentleman was declared dead in 1975, struggled to prove that he was alive (though deceased in the records) and was finally declared alive in 1994.
Umakant Sharma warrants a film too. This postman was suspended in 1984 (because of a discrepancy of ₹57.60 in the records he submitted) and was declared innocent in 2013. Then, in Doshipura (Varanasi) a dispute between Shia and Sunni Muslims over two acres of land has been going on since 1878.
