अतिथि देवो भवः
This sentence echos times, we visit any tourist destination as well as hailing from one of the state known Tourism, this is my faith. People across the globe, round the country gives us the opportunity to help them rejuvenate, refresh and peace. Most are with plenty of questions to be answered by them. We welcome them with open arms and serve in the best manner we can.
But my belief and faith in this industry is not so smooth I had encountered many disputes in hospitality industry. The one i am sharing is one of the worst nightmare for a host. Totally what reverse you might be expecting. This incident comes from the heaven in India, Kashmir. According to police and The incident published in The Tribune's report
Boatman Ghulam Mohd Guroo had serving joyride to tourists travelling Jhelum's Bank. He as daily routine was ferrying travellers across a stretch of Jhelum, when is boat capsized. With his all efforts and help of other motorboat Gurro saved the all the passenger on board.
Hindustan Times published the Eyewitness's say - Later he tried to relax on the banks when one of the haversacks was swept away by the current. He dived back again and even got hold the bag but could not swim back to the bank due to exhaustion. Other boatman claimed to have seem coaxing Guroo to return to the river and have left the spot immediately. They weren't seen after that. For few people the value of their belonging was much more then a 60 Yrs-old man.
Being from Devbhoomi, we expect visiting tourists to be our dev. As majority of the people are employed with tourism segment. But with such incidents only thing that arises and make me question are these Tourists really "Dev" or "DEVil".
Were they here really to see the heaven.
