As part of the publicity campaign of the eleventh edition of the Kerala Travel Mart (KTM 2020) in September this year, a roadshow will be held at Kumarakom on Thursday.
The programme, to be held at Eastend Lake Song Resort , will show the details of the stalls and the guidelines regarding their functioning at the biennial event at Kochi. The pre-event roadshow, according to the organisers, will facilitate attendance of KTM members and enable clarification of doubts related to the event.
