Kanpur, Aug 22 (Inditop.com) India needs more budget hotels to cater to the middle income group, which has tremendous potential to accelerate the domestic tourism industry, Tourism Minister Kumari Selja said Saturday.

“We have to create better infrastructure to tap the middle class people with more and more good budget hotels. We do have a good number of five-star hotels across the country, but that is accessible to only the rich people and foreigners,” the minister said at a function here.
