Kerala Tourism Minister P. A Mohamed Riyas said this is really a big recognition for Kerala to win the award at one of the world’s largest tourism fairs.

“Kerala made a big impact at WTM 2023 where visitors to our stand, mostly representatives from global travel and hospitality majors, showed keen interest in our products and initiatives,” State Tourism Secretary K Biju said, who led the state’s delegation to WTM.

Biju received the award on Wednesday on behalf of Kerala Tourism.
