An MoU has been signed to develop Roshan-ud-Daulah, Chhatar Manzil, and Chunar Fort into luxury heritage hotels. Using the Suryagarh Jaisalmer model, this initiative aims to preserve architectural heritage while promoting tourism. Under the PPP model, heritage tourism is flourishing, backed by supportive policies.

A memorandum of understanding was signed on Wednesday by the Tourism Department and Golden Triangle Fort and Palace Private Limited to develop Roshan-ud-Daulah, Chhatar Manzil in Lucknow, and Chunar Fort in Mirzapur into luxury heritage hotels.
