The startup reflects the growing entrepreneurial spirit among the region\u2019s youth and highlights the role of educational institutions in nurturing creativity and enterprise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Subroutes.com is designed as a digital travel platform that brings together diverse destinations across Assam, Meghalaya, Nagaland, and neighbouring states. The platform aims to provide travellers with curated travel experiences, easy booking facilities, and seamless access to information about the Northeast\u2019s unique attractions. By promoting the region\u2019s heritage, biodiversity, and scenic beauty, the initiative seeks to attract both domestic and international tourists looking for authentic and unexplored destinations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the platform\u2019s key features is the introduction of a flexible \u201ctravel now, pay later\u201d facility, developed in collaboration with South Indian Bank. This feature enables travellers to plan and book trips in advance while making payments in instalments, thereby making travel more affordable and accessible to a wider audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tourism stakeholders believe that such innovative initiatives can play a crucial role in bridging the gap between the Northeast\u2019s immense tourism potential and global travel demand.
