The Indian government has launched the ‘Chalo India’ campaign aimed at promoting tourism and cultural exchange by offering e-visas to international visitors. Under this initiative, one lakh e-visas will be granted to friends of Overseas Citizen of India (OCI) cardholders.
What is the ‘Chalo India’ Campaign?
The ‘Chalo India’ campaign is designed to enhance global connections by facilitating easier travel to India for those who have personal connections with OCI cardholders. By providing e-visas, the government hopes to encourage tourism, strengthen cultural ties, and showcase India’s rich heritage to the world.
One Lakh E-Visas for OCI Cardholders’ Friends
As part of the campaign, the Indian government will issue a total of one lakh e-visas to the friends of OCI cardholders. This move is expected to create more opportunities for international visitors to experience India, whether for tourism, business, or cultural purposes.
Benefits for OCI Cardholders and Their Friends
OCI cardholders can now invite their friends from abroad to visit India with a simplified visa process. The e-visa facility will enable easier access to India, making travel more convenient and attractive for friends of Indian citizens and OCI cardholders.
Promoting Cultural Exchange and Tourism
The ‘Chalo India’ campaign is a strategic step by the Indian government to boost international tourism. By making it easier for people connected to Indian expatriates to visit, the campaign aims to foster greater cultural exchange and strengthen India’s global relations.
