This research was carried out specially to assess the existing security challenges of tourism industry of Pokhara valley. Also study was focused to find out the security lapses and recommend the proper security management system for the tourism industry. We could get many more academic researches in social science related to tourism industry and its development. But hard to find the research related to tourism security. Pokhara valley is developing as a tourist destination and tourism hub. Domestic and foreign investment is increasing in tourism industry of valley. Security level was standard but still there were some security challenges such as, theft, robbery, cheating, strike and natural disaster. The security system of the valley is lacking the high tech policing, lacking of intelligence network, poor infrastructure as well as poor understanding of the tourism industry among the community in the periphery. Similarly unemployment has created such scenario that people around cannot think of the national character and involving in such cheap act of crime.
