Cleaning the Ganges in Varanasi to Attract Tourists

MPRA Paper from University Library of Munich, Germany

Abstract: Despite the salience of Mr. Narendra Modi's campaign from both environmental and touristic standpoints, the extant literature contains no theoretical studies of the clean-up of the Ganges and its connection to tourism. Hence, we use a simple model and provide the first stochastic analysis of the Ganges clean-up process and the attraction of tourists to Varanasi.
