    Agreed with Mr yogesh,there are lot of to be done on this wedsite.one dedicated staff should be deputed for upgradition and cn answer of public comments otherwise inauguration by the CM does not have any meaning.Secondly the booking counter at HP Bhawan needs to be facelift and should have some modern touch to attaract tourists.
