Panaji: Goa chief minister Pramod Sawant on Saturday said that state is equipped to handle matters concerning the tourism industry in the wake of tourist taxi strike, which entered second day.
Tourist Taxi operators have kept their vehicles off the road since Friday demanding that state government should scrap app-based cab ‘Goa Miles.’ Sawant had refused to scrap the app-based cab service asking the tourist taxi operators to either join the service or have their own similar facility.
“Our administration is equipped to handle matters concerning the tourism industry. I want to assure the tourists visiting Goa that there are adequate intra state transport arrangements,” the chief minister has said in a statement released here on Saturday.
“Tourist, domestic as well as international, are most welcome to Goa,” he said.
