I need to know who is spinning these numbers and how because this is at least the second time I've seen claims that MORE THAN A MILLION people are visiting Ayodhya every. single. day. for a year.
Photo of a newspaper article with headline: Ayodhya's tourism economy may touch 18,000 cr by 2028 Tourism in Ayodhya, which witnessed a surge after the consecration of the Ram temple in January 2024, is estimated to generate ₹18,000 crore by 2028. Currently, the city's tourism sector generates between 8,000 crore and 12,500 crore annually spanning the hospitality, transport, retail, and services sec- tors. By 2028, the aggregate tourism economy of Uttar Pradesh is estimated at 70,000 crore, of which Ayodhya alone is expected to contribute 25 per cent, which corresponds to nearly *18,000 crore, a senior official said.

Currently, Ayodhya accounts for roughly 1.5 per cent of UP's Gross State Domestic Product (GSDP). According to the state government, the increase in tourism linked to the Ram temple is expected to fetch UP additional revenue of nearly 4 trillion annually. Meanwhile, Prime Minister Narendra Modi is visiting Ayodhya on November 25 to hoist the flag atop the 191-foot-high spire of the temple. An eco-friendly township in Ayodhya is being developed on 1,407 acres at an estimated cost of 2,180 crore under the 'Vedic Expansion Plan'. A 'Ram Van Gaman Path' is also being constructed at a cost of ₹4,403 crore to manage future tourist growth and rising population in a balanced manner. At present, the population of Ayodhya city is approximately 1.1 million, …

Defending the honour of Central Railway ftw
Newspaper clipping of a published correction, reading "In the story, 'Man arrested for flashing woman' pub-lished on Jan 30, it has been incorrectly mentioned that the accused worked with Central Railway on con-tract. The train is operated by Western Railway."

Bus service hit as BEST diverts 582 for swearing-in Mumbai: For the swearing- in ceremony on Thu, 582 bu- ses from the BEST were re- quisitioned for the event, generating Rs 75 lakh in rental revenue. This, howe- ver, resulted in a 20% reduc- tion in the fleet's operatio- nal capacity across the city. Substantial queues formed in the suburbs as buses we- re diverted for the ceremo- nial proceedings. A city resident observed vacant buses heading to- wards the event while com- muters waited at bus stops. BEST spokesperson Sudas Sawant confirmed the bu- ses were hired for the event. The present fleet diminis- hed to approximately 2,900 buses, while BEST awaits the delivery of new electric AChuses Somit Sen
