What’s In It?

That’s right, India’s neighbouring Himalayan country, Bhutan could be world’s first wholly organic nation by 2020. The political parties in Bhutan will aim to eradicate all chemical fertilisers and pesticides as part of its Gross National Happiness Programme.

Bhutan’s Tourism Policy sticks to principles of sustainability. The policies ensure that all tourist activities are environmentfriendly and are socially as well as culturally acceptable, and economically viable as well.

The nation will also monitor the number of tourists flocking in the country and will not allow more travellers than its ecology can support.
