In a country like ours, where lack of adequate trained personnel is in abundance, where general education is still in the files of planning, are human beings capable of doing their jobs properly, willingly and with a smile? In many countries, the growth of tourism, as an industry, is severely limited by the lack of adequately trained personnel. Where the industry has developed in spite of this constraint, the quality of service provided to the visitor has frequently been the casualty. The basic objective of this study is to evaluate the present scenario of human resource planning in Rajasthan and the challenges and issues faced for producing professionals.
