The tourism industry of Rajasthan is mainly based on: the royal forts and
palaces, and the great wildlife. And this project was taken up by Rajasthan
government to strengthen the wildlife reserves. The main goal was to create a
website where safari bookings for Ranthambore, Sariska and Bhagalpur forests can
be made by the tourists using credit cards and a reservation ticket is generated
automatically. The tourist can then take a print out of the ticket and get the
boarding pass (which is also generated automatically) from the forest office
with minimal hassles. The main reason for deploying this project was to
eliminate the intervention of middle men in the process who were charging a huge
amount of commission. The project has made the whole booking process more
transparent and hassle free for tourists coming from across the globe. After the
deployment, the biggest challenge faced was in managing the hotel staff and
middle men who had been black mailing prior to its deployment. The other
challenge was to make the forest offices connected so that they can access and
verify the tickets and generate the boarding pass for tourists.
