The casino is called offshored, but will be "anchored around 20 metres off the Mandvi river in Goa's capital Panaji."
It is my understanding that the territorial limits of any country is extended upto 12 kilometers from the shoreline. If this is correct, then how can we call this casino as being offshore? I am personally against such casinos. We have seen how the impact of matka is - not just on the people gambling, but the way the organisers conduct their business. I think the influence of the Mafia is very strong in all the casinos in the USA. The article also says: "In addition, several land-based deluxe hotels offer varying degrees of casino facilities all around the state, proving a major revenue earner for the state south of Maharashtra." Does anyone know what the amount that is earned by Goa from this activity?
