    In January 2019, the Goa cabinet had passed a law banning the consumption of alcohol in public places and assured a crackdown on ‘boozing’ on beaches and other tourist sites in the coastal state, which attracts nearly eight million tourists every year.

    The Goa cabinet has approved the new, stricter law which provides for a fine of Rs. 2,000 or a jail term of up to three months. Those committing the offense in groups will be docked at Rs10,000 each. Nobody can drink alcohol on the beaches and tourist places anymore as the bottles cannot be carried, food cannot be cooked in the open and if an offense is registered there will be imprisonment for 3 months. Better check out on the rules, it’s best to hit a bar than end up behind bars.
