      Question

      According to the NITI Aayog report, which policy

      emphasis is recommended to promote tourism-linked homestays?
      A Heavy regulation of home interiors to international standards Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Tax exemption for individual homestay appliances Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Financial incentives targeted at the destination level rather than only individual homestay amenities Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Mandatory franchising of homestays by central tourism bodies Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E Exclusive licensing for homestays through national aggregators Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      The report advocates offering financial incentives to promote tourism at the destination level instead of focusing solely on individual homestay amenities. This is a deliberate policy stance intended to strengthen the entire local tourism ecosystem—improving destination appeal, infrastructure, and services—so that multiple hosts and related enterprises benefit collectively. The report also calls for light-touch, transparent regulatory frameworks to ensure safety and heritage protection while fostering inclusive growth. Options (a), (b), (d), and (e) are not aligned with the report’s emphasis on destination-level incentives and community empowerment as described.
