Commenting on the signing, Suma Venkatesh, Executive Vice President - Real Estate & Development, IHCL said, “Haridwar, located on the banks of the River Ganga, is visited by thousands of pilgrims annually. With this new hotel, IHCL further strengthens its religious tourism portfolio of hotels. We are delighted to partner with Prasad Heritage Pvt. Ltd.
