Thank you for your comments, everybody. I do agree with you that our charm is our 'un-phorenness'. No matter how much our country develops its tourism side of it, I feel that the actual tourists that come our way must do so armed with a heathly dose of humour, a la, Sue McKinsley, in Rang De Basanti. Otherwise, how else can they appreciate the 'un-phorenness' of our country? :)

Hey, I've often wondered along the same lines - why does India not promote tourism more? We have so much to offer, much more than manicured lakes and gardens. I wish the powers in Delhi would wake up and smell the refreshing originality India has to offer in terms of actual forts, mountains, temples etc. Good article!

Good points, the general upkeep and presentability of most tourist locations in India blows when compared to other places in the world, even outside the West. Private tourism, however, is doing well, and the Indian government has run a number of pro-tourism campaigns. Interestingly, the first result on Amazon for the search term 'tourism' is the first book above by a desi, Nirpal Singh Dhaliwal, newly published.
