Watersports operators, who have been opposing Goa Electronic Ltds (GEL) proposed manned digital queue system for the past several months, got a reprieve on Monday after the government agreed to temporarily put the plan on hold.
The government has decided to allow operators to continue with their existing manual queue system for the remainder of the tourist season.
The solution was arrived at after chief ministerPramod Sawantheld a lengthy discussion with coastal MLAs and watersports operators along with tourism ministerRohan Khaunte.
A few months ago, the tourism department announced the introduction of a GEL-operated digital queue system for watersports activities as per the directive.
