    IDUKKI:
    Except the traces of landslips and damage of roads in some areas, the tourism sector in Idukki district has bounced back to normal with no evidence of the devastating floods in Kerala.

The visitors at the event were taken to the major tourist spots in Kerala, especially Idukki district, to have an on the spot assessment of how tourism bounced back, he added.
