Take bull by the horns or see tourism become history

REKHA SARIN TREHAN, Benaulim | 11th September, 06:48 pm

Most of the beaches in South Goa now resemble an open air zoo, an animal farm if you will. Dogs (of course), cows, bulls, buffaloes and the occasional goats roam on the sands, they are the masters of all they survey. These beings pose not only a perennial danger to beach users but they also sully the pristine sands. The government's apathy to the situation and lack of will even at the panchayat level to remedy the state of affairs is hurting tourism and is forcing visitors to literally flee Goa. After all who would want to be bitten by a dog or gored by a bull while on vacation. It is my earnest request to the government to take the bull by the horns literally before tourism becomes history.
