The Site the is not to be named is saying that there is and India Pavilion in works for EPCOT with a boat ride base on the Jungle Book. Is there any credibility behind it?

It'll all be CGI just like the Taj Mahal scene in Soarn'

India is certainly an option. I dare say the Dark Lord found this “news” here.

Just read that too. He even calls it a rumor though. Usually he'll write that something is confirmed to be on the way. This time he even emphasizes that India Pavilion is a rumor.

Maybe someone already does... or has hinted at it

I always wait to to hear from @marni1971 on these matters.
It says it will utilize the Shanghai Pirates ride system We do know there are competing projects that are presenting that want to use it at WDW. This just maybe one of them and hence the "rumor"status.

I have not read about a JB ride only the India pavilion but it is easy to miss rumors on this board since things are so fluid.

While Jungle Book was not hinted at here, Marni1971 did mention earlier this year that Epcot and DHS was basically battling out for one of them getting the Shanghai Pirates rides system. Indiana Jones was the rumor concerning the Shanghai Pirates ride system, but didn't recall him mention anything about what attraction the ride system would be used for Epcot.

Well it certainly sounds like a great idea, but I've lost count of how many "rumors" we've heard lately about possible world showcase pavilions.

In the past I haven't minded the character incursions into World Showcase so much but to have a country of 1.3 billion people distilled into a cartoon animal boat ride is egregious. At least with American Adventure, France, China, & Canada you can see the faces of the people who live there, but not with the Mexico and Norway updates.
Edit- not to say that other places in the park (e.g. Adventureland in MK) need to be about experiencing other cultures, but Epcot was meant to be exactly that

Previously, @marni1971 had said that an India Pavilion was possible, but not as high on the list.

Maybe they'll put it in the middle of the lagoon, inaccessible and melting?
Note: Then the World Showcase could be like a azimuthal equidistant projection centered on Antarctica!

I agree that an Indy themed attraction would be great, however, given the invasion that will occur of DHS once Galaxy's Edge opens, they need to make sure they have new attractions spread among the other parks to draw guests. An awesome new Indy ride in DHS would be just one more reason for people to swarm a park that is already going to be unable to handle the crowds.
