India’s tourism story is being rewritten—and Gajendra Singh Shekhawat is at the helm. For our March 2025 cover, SOH features the dynamic Tourism Minister as he charts a bold new course: spotlighting spiritual circuits, unlocking access to off-the-grid destinations, and developing 50 lesser-known locations to ease pressure on India's tourist hotspots. From a landmark museum project with the Louvre to championing experiential tourism—think eco homestays in the Northeast, lavender trails in Kashmir, and discovering Goa beyond its beaches—Shekhawat is reimagining the future of Indian travel.
