Goa seeks the return of Russian tourists to revive local economy

The return of Russian tourists to casino establishments will likely jumpstart Goa’s exhausted local economy caused by the pandemic 

In India, the state government of Goa said the return of Russian tourists to both its hotels and casino establishments will likely jumpstart its exhausted local economy caused by the Covid-19 pandemic. 

Russia is the single largest continent that has accounted for nearly one-fifth of the total of GOA’s foreign tourists in recent years, followed by the tourists from the United Kingdom. 

On Thursday, Ports Minister Michael Lobo stated that Russian tourist charter operators had expressed interest in gaining flight landing slots at Goa’s Dabolim International Airport for the upcoming tourism season.

But the Russians have asked for slots for landing in Goa. We welcome this interest, but we need a green signal from the center,”  

“We have discussed this issue with the Chief Minister. The center is likely to give a signal to tentatively start international charter flights from November from Russia to Goa. After that, the state government will have to grant permission.” He added. 

“The question of a seventh offshore casino does not arise. We currently have six offshore casinos. In this pandemic, I don’t think anyone would want to bring in a boat over the next two years,” Lobo said.
