Tourism has been an indisputable reality of contemporary existence in recent years. It is a well-established and crucial driver of economic growth worldwide. The beneficial impacts of this include employment creation, money generating, development of multicultural connections, and fostering mutual understanding. Tourism is a potent economic driver that generates job opportunities, foreign currency inflows, income, and tax revenue. This paper aims to analyse the economic effects of tourism on the socio-economic growth and development of Jharkhand, a picturesque state in India renowned for its lush forests, diverse wildlife, stunning waterfalls, exquisite handicrafts, expansive water bodies, captivating classical and folk dances and music, and most importantly, its welcoming and peaceful population. Jharkhand is endowed with abundant biodiversity, a temperate climate, a wealth of cultural and historical legacy, religious pilgrimage sites, and ethnic elements, making it an ideal tourism destination. The tourism industry in Jharkhand has seen significant growth in recent years due to the establishment of adequate infrastructure, enhancement of existing tourist sites, creation of new destinations, and the robust expansion of the hotel and restaurant sector in the state. This is evident from the fact that there has been a rise in both local and international tourists visiting the state, resulting in an increase in tourist spending and the influx of money. Jharkhand has been more popular among international tourists in India due to its consistent development in foreign visitor numbers in recent years. Therefore, it is essential for the government to develop strategies and policies that encourage the promotion of tourism in order to achieve a steady and sustained economic development for the state.
