MARGAO: Goa Forward Chief Vijai Sardesai has said the recent Tourism Board meeting chaired by Chief Minister Pramod Sawant, held when the Tourism Season is nearing to end, is yet another example of this government’s reactive and mismanaged approach to governance.
“No meeting has been convened since 2023, and now, only after I demanded the minutes of the Board under the Legislative Assembly Questions (LAQ), the CM and his team have been forced into damage control”, he said.
He added: “The timing of this meeting is utterly baffling. Such discussions on infrastructure improvements, transport regulations, and cultural promotion should have been held before the start of the tourism season, not when nearing to end. This delay has denied stakeholders and the people of Goa meaningful improvements when they were needed the most”.
