Government plans regulatory framework for paying guest accommodations

The government is planning a comprehensive regulatory framework for paying guest (PG) accommodations across the country. The proposed measures include mandatory licensing and registration of PGs, along with listing them on a public portal for transparency and accountability.

The initiative aims to standardize operations and ensure safety and quality standards across the sector. The regulatory steps are expected to bring uniformity to an otherwise unorganized market and protect tenant interests while providing clarity to operators.
