Corona has cost Goa's tourism industry Rs. 1000 crore hit

Mumbai, Ta. Thursday, October 28, 2020

The Goa Chamber of Commerce and Industry has claimed that Corona has hit Goa's tourism industry with Rs 1,000 crore in revenue this year. The chamber has requested the state government to resume mining operations and open more avenues of employment in view of the declining revenue.

Goa’s tourism industry is another major source of revenue for the state. The industry has lost Rs 1,000 crore due to the lockdown, according to a statement issued by the chamber.

The Chamber has welcomed the efforts made by the state government in consultation with the Prime Minister for resumption of mining activities. The resumption of mining activities will not only bring significant revenue to the state through royalties and taxes, but will also create more employment opportunities for the citizens of Goa.

Mining has been banned since 2013 following a court order after irregularities were caught in the mining lease.
