Hospitality, therefore, is considered as an important area for intensive development by all governments. Also,
as fastest growing foreign exchange earner, it is being given priority attention by the developing countries.

imperative that great care must be taken to provide quality services by hospitality professionals for all the
budgetary classes of tourists. Adequate numbers of well trained professionals are thus an absolute necessity
