Radhakrishnan also said, “It is a great opportunity for us to get more than 140 foreign delegates to visit Nagpur. While the initial budget is around ₹30 crore, we may increase it as well.”

The delegates will be in Nagpur on the 21st and 22nd of March. They will be staying at Le Meredien and Hotel Raddisson Blu. The immediate beautification and branding plan also includes the route that leads from the airport to the two hotels.

For the ‘Tiger Capital’ branding, the authorities are trying to carve out time for wildlife safaris, apart from providing information about the very big cats in the area. Radhakrishnan also said, “It all depends on their final schedule, but we would love to include Jungle Safari in Pench as well.” Because logically it would be the most preferred option.”
