Officials estimate about 200,000 domestic and international tourists cancelled or postponed their trip to the Taj Mahal in the past two weeks, one of the world’s most popular tourist attractions

“There has been a 60 per cent decline in visitor footfalls in December this year,” said Dinesh Kumar, a police inspector overseeing a special tourist police station near the Taj Mahal who has access to visitor data. He said the decline was compared to December last year.

A group of European tourists travelling in a group across India said they now planned to cut short their 20 day trip. Managers in luxury hotels and guest houses around the Taj Mahal said last minute cancellations during the festive season have further dampened business sentiment at a time when the country’s economic growth has slowed to 4.5 per cent, its slowest pace in more than six years.In a bid to clamp down on violence and unrest, authorities have suspended mobile internet services in Agra.

Opinion: Hopeful signs fuel a quiet rebound in Canadian oil and gas industry stocksStocks in many cases are still selling for less than half what they were before the oil price crash in early 2014. But now, with oil and gas prices edging up, companies are set to take advantage of the cost-cutting and debt-reduction they had been forced to undertake to survive. globebusiness why ? makes no sense at all to invest in an industry that is based on exploiting a resource where the cost of getting it out of the ground is higher than the selling price. globebusiness In the few remaining companies that have not fled Canada lol!!!
