BALENDU SINGH - Dev Vilas

What Balendu thinks about TOFT:

"The very foundation of businesses run by TOFT members is directly linked to the success of conservation programmes in India.

The ideals of TOFT help us in providing Yeoman services to conservation initiatives, by creating continuous employment opportunities. This helps in decreasing biotic pressure on the land bordering our National Park. It also creates conservation awareness linked with economic and social upliftment of the local community.

TOFT with its international membership can create awareness and generate public opinion which assists in policy formation.  TOFT ideals help in putting pressure on both Public and private sector to practice sustainable Wildlife Tourism."

TOFT Representative (Ranthambhore)

What Aditya thinks of TOFT:

“Responsible practices make sound business, ecological and social sense. Most accommodation providers realize this and are striving to achieve the same. The process can be speeded up by “support” inputs by organizations like TOFT. Most of us are not even aware about how to improve our practices. TOFT by applying pressure through the supply chain and by providing technical and other support to the different links of the chain can small accommodation providers like us, improve our practices, which in turn would help the campaign”.
