Chandigre Rural Tourist Resort
The rural tourism project at Chandigre is a
project funded by the Ministry of Tourism, Govt.
of India, to promote community based tourism at
the village level. The main objective of the project
is to promote village life of India to people
travelling to the country.
Rural Tourism Project at Chandigre was taken up
in view of the proximity of the village to places of
interests like Nokrek Biosphere Reserve,
Rombagre fish sanctuary, Selbalgre Hoolock
Gibbon Reserve and also the village of Sasatgre
which is the traditional village of Garos. The rural
tourism project therefore envisages to promote
the local culture and tradition through community
participation whereby the benefits goes directly to
the villages involved.
It is one of the success story of convergence
initiative and viability gap funding (VGF) fostered
by Department of Tourism, Department of
Horticulture and the livelihood promotion
programme of state IBDLP.
