Summary:
JAIPUR: For now, privatization or leasing out of Rajasthan Tourism Development Corporation (RTDC) hotels is off the table. In a recent board meeting, RTDC has introduced a discount scheme to increase occupancy in these hotels. Holding protests against the management has been a routine affair for the employees' union of RTDC. But the vaunted objective of reducing losses could not be achieved.Cumulative losses of RTDC have reached Rs 100 crore in 2017-18. Accordingly, more than 400 employees engaged in the operations of these hotels have been sent on reverse deputation last year..
