Aiming to promote tourism in Delhi, the city Government on Monday launched ‘Dekho Meri Dilli’, a mobile app where users will have all details about popular tourist destinations, hotels, restaurants, food joints and heritage sites. During the launch, Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal said that the Delhi government is putting its best foot forward to promote tourism and the app will prove to be a game-changer. “Delhi Government will take tourism to a never-imagined height in Delhi and people will want to stay for longer and spend more on the businesses of Delhiites.”
“Congratulations to everyone as we dedicate this unique app to the people to celebrate the World Tourism Day. This app will turn out to be extremely useful to all the people who come to Delhi from all over the world. Delhi is a historical but a very modern city in itself. If anyone wants to understand the history of this country, they can not do it without coming to Delhi. At the same time, if someone wants to see the most technologically advanced innovations of this country, they’ll have to come to Delhi. Delhi boasts of amazing food, the most indulging entertainment and the most revered monuments. But, we lacked information about them, this app will plug that information gap. All information about tourism in Delhi will be available on this app in an organised, user-friendly, and effective manner,” CM Kejriwal said.
“The app has a unique feature that will allow you to browse through monuments, eating joints, entertainment and recreation sites within a 5 kilometre radius of your location. This will definitely be useful for tourists, but I am certain that the people of Delhi will make more use of this app. It’ll help us make better use of our time and know our city better.
The app has been designed with such sensitivity for the people that even information about public conveniences is available on the app. This is a first of its kind app in India. Some cities in developed countries have such apps on offer. Delhi joins that small list of cities today,” the CM added.
