Sarabjit Singh, Managing Director, Travelite (India), has recently stepped down as Vice Chairman, FAITH. After working in the industry for many years, Singh believes that different ministries who have anything to do with tourism should work together to improve India’s tourism ranking in the world.

I started my journey in the travel industry in 1971, when I joined my father’s ‘Karachi Taxi Company’, also known as KTC Private Limited, which is the largest transport company in India. We started our inbound tourist company in 1979, called Travelite India. At that time, things were not favourable in the transport and tourism segment, because of which I started collecting all tourist transport operators together and in 1987, we formed the Indian Tourist Transporters Association. I have been associated with it since its inception till May this year. After a few years I joined IATO and have served as Senior Vice President for two terms.
