Tourism and Culture An Anthropological Study on Sundarban

Author: Dinda, Amitava

Keywords: Tourism
Social and Culture Life
Sundarban
Sundarban Tiger Reserve

Publisher: Research India Press, New Delhi in association with Anthropological Survey of India, Kolkata

Description: In this book, Dinda provides valuable quantitative data on the social and demographic characteristics of the tourists, both Indian and foreign origins. He also tells us about the behavioural patterns of the groups of tourists, and how it differs from the solo sojourners. He sensitively pursues the impact of tourism on the abiotic and biotic environments, carefully documenting how the frequent launches (Water Craft) and motorized boats (bhat bhati ) disturb the solitude of the Tiger Reserve, which adversely affects the normal schedule of wild animals. The oil spillage from the bhatbhati makes the water polluted; it becomes unfit for use, besides thwarting the natural growth of marine life. Littering of the area is another major issue of concern.

Type: E-Book
