Abstract
The paper is based on the Contribution that needs to be taken by the places of Worship across Tamilnadu towards resurrecting the Tourism Sector post Covid 19. The Impact of the pandemic, Corona Virus has bought the tourism sector to a Complete halt, a sector to which our country generally looks into and carries it as an asset towards the generation of our country economy every year. It was observed by the expert committee like the CII who says that the losses has gone upto over 30 billion, with an average of around 80 less travel in these period since the Lockdown in March 2020. Furthermore to complicate things, a loss of around 20 trillion is expected thus damaging the growth further.
As a researcher, it is a scary thought for me to think out minute factors that happen to reach the Tourism sector to promote itself .Indian tourism development in the world has shown a improving trend in to being 22nd in the world in 2018 and just touching in upon the top 20 status last year Indian Tourism has witnessed a considerable hit in the current situation. Tourism sector which also has created a ripple of a domino effect in towards Aviation Sector, Hospitality Sector and Transportation sector has to be revived immediately for the welfare of our country.
As I underwent a few research, one thing that caught my eye is the places of Worship. I thought of covering in the places of religious sites as a way to Sustain and build tourism in our state Tamilnadu. Based on a Questionnaire , I started Collecting opinions through Telephonic Conversation among the various people in Tamilnadu in a convenient Sampling method. I used the statistical tool, chi Square test and also wanted to see whether there is a difference in the means, a way to build up Tourism Industry. Based on this, I noted my findings and concluded in certain suggestions to ensure that Places of Worship in Tamilnadu can be one of the fundamental things through which Sustainability can be achieved in Tourism
