Amritsar (Punjab) [India], May 29 (ANI): Amritsar Hotel Association members staged a demonstration on Thursday, demanding a relief package for the hospitality industry which has been severely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.
JP Dhingra, General Secretary of the association, told ANI, "Industries are gradually reopening but the hotel industry is still closed".
Members of the association urged the State and Central government to support the industry in the testing times and claimed that the hotel industry is on the brink of collapse.
