You Won’t Find Goan Girls In Bikinis, Says Goa Chief Minister

Darpan News Desk IANS, 09 Feb, 2016 11:01 AM
    Chief Minister Laxmikant Parsekar has said Goans are not to be blamed for “misconceptions” about the state and insisted that women seen in bikinis or people attired in “exceptional” dresses on the beaches are tourists and not local residents.
     
    “The tourists who come here watch another fellow tourist and return with misconception. You will not find Goans drunk on the roads or any local girl in bikini,” he said.
     
    “You could see people in short dresses, they are foreigners. People who are seen in bikini or wearing exceptional dress are not Goans. They are tourists,” Parsekar said in an interaction during the ongoing Annual General Body meeting of Federation of Employees Union in Panaji on Monday.
