New Delhi, Aug 19 - 'We should look through the eyes of tourists about what they expect from us,' Tourism Minister Kumari Selja said here Wednesday, calling upon experts and all stakeholders to help put India on the world tourism map.

'We need good hotels, infrastructure, connectivity for tourists. We have to specially think about tourism infrastructure in view of the 2010 Commonwealth Games. We should take it as an opportunity and a boon for us,' said Selja while inaugurating a workshop on World Class Tourism Infrastructure.

'I call upon experts and stakeholders in the tourism sector to develop world class tourism infrastructure for putting India's tourism industry on the world tourism map,' she added.

'We should look at comprehensive development of infrastructure which includes roads, water, sanitation, cleanliness, hygiene, proper lighting, landscape, signages and proper maintenance of tourism destinations and heritage sites,' she said.

'We have to see the tourism industry from the point of view of tourists rather than our officialdom,' she said.

She said her ministry, through rural tourism projects, is evolving a system to bring villages of the country on the main tourist map.
