Nagpur: For those with breathing problems, which get aggravated due to bursting of crackers, forest resorts around Nagpur are becoming a haven during Diwali .
Gaurav Chouksey, director of a resort chain, said, “I have a set of regular clients who check in a day prior to Diwali and stay put for three to four days with their families, to escape pollution in the city. Sandeep Singh, owner of a resort in Pench, said, “Guests like to participate in the Diwali puja we perform at our resort. Now, rooms get booked as soon as the season starts,” Chouksey said. Himanshu Bagde, an eco-tourism consultant in Tadoba, said Diwali is now one of the busiest seasons. It is not just resorts but even homestays are all taken up,” said Bagde.
this year, guests arrived at the last minute to escape the spurt in pollution in the city While resorts are mostly booked in advance from Diwali night onwards. With bursting of crackers banned on resort properties, guests are guaranteed that their respiratory problems are not further aggravated. This is a trend I have been witnessing since the last five years. During their stay at the resort, guests are not deprived of the Diwali rituals. They get to enjoy the traditional celebration in the company of their loved ones in a pollution-free environment. Resorts hitting high occupancy right from Diwali day wasn’t always the case. “Around a decade ago, Diwali eve meant sluggish business with virtually no guests. “This is the time when all safaris are booked and all resorts are full.
