Chandigarh, July 4:- The state government has taken a big step towards establishing Haryana on the major tourism map of the country. Chief Minister Shri Naib Singh Saini, in an important review meeting held with the top officials of the Tourism Department, has directed to develop the historical Yadvindra Garden of Pinjore and the beautiful Tickertal of Morni Hills as per modern and international standards.
Under this ambitious project, a proposal has been prepared to spend about Rs 90 crore on the renovation and modernization of both the major tourist places.
