    PROJECT RATIONALE:
    Bodh Gaya presents a number of lucrative opportunities to a potential investor. Some critical
    success factors that point to the potential of any project in Bodh Gaya include the following:

    The epicenter of Buddhism- Bodh Gaya: Bodh Gaya is the epicenter of Buddhism as well
    as is the strategic locus of the Buddhist circuit consisting of Rajgir, Nalanda, Vaishali,
    Patna, Pawapuri, and Kesaria. It acts as a point of entry and exit for visitors specially
    Buddhist Tourists from major South East Asian nations.

    UN World Heritage Site: The Mahabodhi temple at Bodh Gaya, India has been accorded
    the status of a World Heritage Site, recognition offered to rare sites that are of
    outstanding value to humanity. The declaration has helped this epitome of Buddhist
    faith to avail UNESCO funds for conservation, protection and maintenance on a
    sustainable basis.
    Accessibility: Bodh Gaya has excellent connectivity within India by road and rail. It is an
    important junction between Delhi and Calcutta both by road (Golden Quadrilateral) and
    rail (Grand Chord).

    But, the USP of any infrastructure project in Bodh Gaya is the connectivity through the
    Gaya airport which currently has direct flights from Bangkok (Thailand), Rangoon (Burma),
    Dhaka (Bangladesh), Paro (Bhutan), Colombo (Sri Lanka) as well as all the major cities of
    India. The Gaya airport currently operates more than 800 flights annually. It is also
    increasingly ramping up its airport capacity to cater to a large international tourist base.
