A review of hotel projects coming up for the Commonwealth Games in the national capital has indicated that 7,307 rooms have been completed, which is 70% of the overall target of 10,540 ‘definite’ rooms.
This was revealed after the 27th meeting of the task force set up to monitor augmentation of hotel accommodation in the national capital region (NCR) of Delhi.
"The performance of hotel projects of Haryana is commendable as 85% of the 6,766 ‘definite’ rooms have been completed and efforts are being made to complete the balance as early as possible," the tourism ministry said.
Several hotels in Haryana are receiving their completion certificates and are likely to be inaugurated in the next few months.
The promoters of the rest are striving to complete the projects and operationalise the hotels by March 31 to receive the benefits of the five-year tax holiday announced by the government for hotels coming up for the Games.
