Goa should replicate Lanka model to boost tourism

It was exhilarating to be in Sri Lanka last week to attend the wedding of a lawyer friend from Bengaluru. And also a great opportunity to visit the Supreme Court, High Court and the District Court all located adjacent to each other in Colombo. Indeed a learning experience to interact with the court officials.  Sri Lanka is a beautiful touristic country having now evolved also as a wedding destination. The streets are free of garbage and  the beaches so pristine. Travelling through villages and towns and even  sailing through mangroves or driving to the upcountry which is world renowned for it's tea plantations, it was admirable to witness a waste and litter-free green country. Sri Lanka was overflowing with tourists from around the world who are now opting to be there as its value for their money. May be Goa should try and replicate the Sri Lanka model to boost tourism in what was once known as the Paradise of the East.
