Beaches in Goa to be WiFi-enabled SOON


Beaches in Goa will soon be WiFi-enabled and also covered by closed-circuit television, Tourism Minister Dilip Parulekar said on Friday.

The state, known for its beach and nightlife, had tapped into a central government scheme to ensure internet service along the coastal hotspots, he told reporters on the sidelines of a media event here.

"All the beaches in Goa will be covered by WiFi, thanks to tourism ministry's Swadesh Darshan scheme under which the Goa government has got Rs 100 crore," Parulekar said.

Goa attracts nearly 40 lakh tourists every year, including half a million from abroad.

Parulekar said under the scheme, CCTVs would be installed along the beaches for strengthening security.
