(2) It shall come in to force at once with

effect from its date of publication in the Official

Gazette.

2. Background.— The Department of

Tourism is the nodal department for

undertaking various marketing and promotion

activities of Goa Tourism round the year within

India and Abroad.

Goa is a unique tourist destination which

attracts tourists from world over as well as

from the different parts of the country. Year

2015, saw a whopping rise of 30.5 % overall

tourist arrivals over that of the preceding

year. For the year 2016 also there has been

an increase of 19.5 % in the overall tourist

arrivals.

Tourism is a major driving force for the state

as also to all those who are directly and

indirectly dependent on it. The tourism

industry today faces multiple challenges due

to the tough competition that exists in the

tourism market. Newly emerging Tourism

products, Stakeholders and new States trying

to promote their tourism products have also

increased the pressure to outstand in the

market. Establishment of newer markets and

new tourism products like hinterland tourism,

Eco tourism, Adventure tourism, theme parks

and amusement facilities, MICE tourism and

Leisure tourism segments have become

equally important as they are seen too have

incasing trends in the Industry. It is therefore

of utmost importance that this unique identity

of Goa as a perfect Tourist destination needs

to be promoted and marketed in the right

earnest.

All this can be achieved by having a strong

promotion and marketing policy for tourism

in the State. A strategic plan giving details of

the potential and emerging markets, and

events taking place round the year is therefore

of utmost importance. To stay in the

competition it is equally important to

participate in these events and promote and

market Goa Tourism in the potential and

emerging newer markets.

Promotion and marketing of Goa Tourism is

an important function for the development of

the tourism industry in the State.

The Government therefore, frames this

scheme for execution of all promotion and

marketing activities under the department of

tourism in the interest of the state and in larger

interest of the Tourism industry.

3. Objectives of the Scheme.— The scheme

is intended for promotion of Goa Tourism in

India and abroad through organization of

various events, road shows, participation in

exhibitions, travel marts, undertaking

branding and publicity, photo and video

documentation of various places of tourist

website and helpline for the benefit of the

tourists visiting the state and other tourism

products.

The following activities and components

shall be covered under the scheme:–

(a) Promotion of Goa tourism through art

tourism related events like Carnival, Tripurari
