Goa, 6 November 2024: In a decisive action aimed at preserving the sanctity and natural beauty of Goa’s pristine beaches, the Goa Tourism Department has successfully demolished seven illegal structures at Rajbag Beach in Canacona. This initiative aligns with the Department’s commitment to safeguarding the coastline and ensuring adherence to legal regulations to maintain the integrity of Goa’s iconic beach destinations.

These illegal structures, which were built without the requisite permissions, posed not only an environmental hazard but also disrupted the beach’s natural landscape. The Tourism Department’s enforcement team from the South Zone office, led by Mr. Dhiraj Vagle, Deputy Director of Tourism, in coordination with local authorities, carried out the demolition as part of a broader, ongoing campaign to curb unauthorized developments along Goa’s coastline.

Speaking on the action, Shri Suneel Anchipaka, IAS, Director of Tourism and Managing Director of GTDC, stated, “Our aim is to ensure that Goa’s beaches remain a beautiful, safe, and sustainable environment for both tourists and locals. We will continue to monitor and take necessary actions against any activities that compromise the ecological balance and legal guidelines set for our coastal regions.”

The Department appeals to the public and tourism stakeholders to support its efforts in promoting responsible tourism and maintaining Goa’s beaches as clean, law-abiding zones that reflect the state’s natural charm and hospitality.
