FIVE CRORE TOURISTS EVERY YEAR IN RAM MANDIR AYODHYA

 The opening of the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya is expected to have a significant economic impact, leading to the creation of a substantial number of jobs in the temple town and surrounding areas. Estimates by the human capital management platform Betterplace suggest that the temple's opening could generate 150,000-200,000 direct and indirect jobs within the next 4-5 years. Additionally, the region is expected to experience increased construction activity, including expansion by hotel chains, apartment units, healthcare facilities, and other infrastructure developments, potentially creating an additional 50,000-100,000 temporary jobs.

 

Various sectors are anticipated to drive the demand for manpower in Ayodhya. Industries such as hotels, hospitality, tourism, food and beverages, daily essentials, personal care products, healthcare, banking, and construction are expected to benefit from the rise in religious tourism. Consumer goods companies and food service chains are already strengthening their presence in the area, viewing Ayodhya as a branding and marketing hotspot.

 

The estimated job creation figures are based on an annual footfall projection of 50 million people in the coming years. Immediate job opportunities are expected to range from 10,000-30,000, with an anticipated daily influx of 100,000-200,000 tourists in the near future.

 

In response to the growing demand, consumer goods brands are expanding their offerings in Ayodhya, resulting in new jobs related to sales, supply chain and logistics, warehousing, and packaging. The hospitality, travel, and tourism sector is also expected to see significant job growth, with an estimated 20,000-25,000 permanent and temporary positions being created annually. Roles in high demand include hotel staff, housekeeping, front-desk management, chefs, and multilingual tour guides.

 

The banking, financial services, and insurance (BFSI) sector is also expected to play a significant role in job creation. As the region develops, BFSI institutions are likely to establish branches and ATMs to cater to the increasing demand for financial services.

 

Corporates are recognizing the potential of Ayodhya as a marketing destination and are preparing to meet the expected surge in demand. Sectors such as FMCG, hospitality, restaurants, and real estate are expected to experience significant growth in business.

 

Reports indicate that the Ram Temple's opening could attract over 50 million tourists annually, further contributing to the economic development of Ayodhya.
