Once tagged 'Kala Pani', Barmer is now witnessing increasing prosperity with golf courses, bunk house resorts with swimming pools and fancy malls with gaming zones mushrooming in the town

In Barmer — heartland of Rajasthan’s crude oil production — a new generation of entrepreneurs is exploiting the growing prosperity that oil fields have brought to the region. While a 33-year-old is building a golf course in a luxury hotel he built in 2014, another is developing a chain of bunk house resorts.

Entrepreneur Lalit Kiri, who once did odd jobs in Oman, benefited from the oil boom and is now developing a chain of bunk house resorts in the region

These resorts are being used as accommodation by employees of oil facilities in the town
