Abstract
The World Travel and Tourism Council defines the travel and tourism industry as 'The world's largest industry, supporting one in eleven jobs (319 million) and generating one in 10 of GDP (US$7,6 trillion) worldwide'. The travel and tourism industry in India is also creating inroads in every sector at a rapid speed. People who have been experiencing disposable income and are influenced by globalisation are travelling both domestically and internationally. The impact of travel and tourism on the environment is phenomenal. The communities are becoming aware of the power of tourism in supporting conservation and local economic development. Community-based tourism enterprises are being established by local communities who want to tap the opportunity offered by the areas of outstanding and often vulnerable natural and cultural heritage. The present study aims to identify the role and importance of community-based tourism and community involvement in eco-tourism
