‘Matter of pride…’ says Diya Kumari
Jaipur’s former princess Diya Kumari reportedly said that Jaipur’s feat is a matter of pride for the entire country, and not just Rajasthan.
“Happy with the ranking its is a matter of pride not just for Rajasthan but for the entire country,” said Rajasthan Tourism minister Diya Kumari, reported NDTV.
“Jaipur is the only Indian city to receive this global ranking this year. Udaipur had achieved it once, but Jaipur continues to be a preferred destination worldwide. In fact, a city from Rajasthan often makes it to the list, which speaks volumes about the state’s cultural and tourism appeal,” Diya Kumari told NDTV.
