PANAJI - The union budget presented by Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee has come as a shock for the two industries which are considered the mainstay of the Goa's economy - mining and tourism.
PANAJI - A total of 36 foreigners, including 13 Nigerians, were arrested in Goa last year for illegally overstaying in India, the state's Home Minister Ravi Naik said Wednesday.
PANAJI - The livelihood of nearly a third of Goa's population of 13 lakh is linked to the tourism industry, the state's Tourism Minister Nilkanth Halarnkar said Tuesday.
PANAJI - In a sudden order issued late Monday, the Goa government ordered the closure of two offshore casinos here, including MV Casino Royale - the biggest in the state.
PANAJI - After dilly-dallying for nearly a year, the Goa government Friday scrapped a controversial agreement signed with a Delhi-based firm for providing high security number plate (HSNP) for motor vehicles in Goa.
