Hope they focus on improving infrastructure too. Many pilgrimage sites need better facilities, sanitation and crowd management. The spiritual experience should be comfortable for all devotees.

Ujjain is one of the seven sacred cities! Perfect choice for spiritual tourism conclave. MP government should also promote lesser-known spiritual sites across the state.

As someone who visited MP last year, the spiritual sites are incredible but need better tourist information centers and multilingual guides. Hope this initiative addresses that!

Good step but hope this doesn't become commercialized. Spiritual tourism should maintain the sanctity of these places while improving facilities. Balance is key.

MP has amazing potential for spiritual tourism! From ancient temples to Buddhist sites. Hope they include local communities in this development and create sustainable tourism models.
