Indian Army builds homestay in Arunachal Pradesh to boost border tourism
A new double-storey homestay has opened in the remote border village of Taksing, Arunachal Pradesh. Built by the Indian Army, the project aims to boost local livelihoods and tourism in the region. Villagers have welcomed the initiative as a step toward inclusive development in isolated areas.
The homestay was constructed by the Spearhead Division of Spear Corps under Operation Sadbhavna. It forms part of the broader Vibrant Village programme, which focuses on border area development. The project aligns with the Army's commitment to socio-economic growth in remote communities, reflecting the principle of 'Seema Suraksha ke Saath Sabka Vikas & Sabka Vishwas' (development and trust alongside border security).
Since 2020, the Army has completed 28 similar homestay projects across border regions like Ladakh, Arunachal Pradesh, and Jammu & Kashmir. These efforts aim to create sustainable income sources for locals while promoting tourism. The Taksing homestay is expected to attract visitors and strengthen economic activity in the area.
Local residents have praised the Army's role in bridging gaps between military and civilian communities. The initiative highlights ongoing civil-military cooperation in remote border zones.
The Taksing homestay now stands as a model for sustainable development in border villages. It provides locals with a new income stream while encouraging tourism growth. The project is one of many under Operation Sadbhavna, reinforcing the Army's long-term support for isolated communities.
