The meeting was attended by Tourism Minister Shri Rohan Khaunte, MLA & GTDC Chairman Dr. Ganesh Gaonkar, Chief Secretary, and officials from various departments and tourism associations.
The meeting aimed to discuss strategies for promoting Goa’s tourism potential, improving infrastructure, and enhancing the overall tourist experience. With its rich cultural heritage, stunning beaches, and vibrant nightlife, Goa has long been a favorite destination for tourists. This meeting is expected to pave the way for new initiatives that will take the state’s tourism sector to the next level.
While specific decisions made during the meeting are not publicly available, it’s worth noting that Goa’s tourism industry has been gaining momentum.
