According to Yuvraj Padole from MPTB, it has decided to enter into long-term contracts with private companies for setting up and running tent cities at these destinations. The contracts will now be signed for 5-10 years.

Tenders have been floated, inviting bids for tent cities in Orchha, Mandu, Tamia and Hanuvantia. The tent cities in Kuno and Gandhisagar will be set up by Gujarat-based Lallooji & Sons and at Chanderi by Sunset Reserves.

The bookings will start as soon as the tent cities are ready for occupation, most probably from October, Padole added.
