Rishikesh Rafting: Risk Form Mandatory for Tourists, Know Benefits & Safety

• Rishikesh rafting requires a mandatory 'risk form' due to the adventurous yet risky nature of the activity in the Ganga River.
• The form ensures tourists acknowledge potential dangers and participate voluntarily, aiding legal and safety processes.
• It collects crucial health information (asthma, epilepsy, heart issues) for guides to take necessary precautions.
• Post-accident, the Uttarakhand Tourism Development Board investigates, checking tourist info and agency compliance; negligence leads to strict action.
• Rafting companies must have insurance (approx. ₹2 lakh per tourist) for compensation, ensuring tourist security and responsible operations.
