The Goa government granted six months extension to five offshore casinos to relocate from river Mandovi here.

"The State cabinet has granted an extension to five offshore casinos to relocate from river Mandovi from April 1 till September 30, 2017," a senior official told PTI.

The previous Laxmikant Parsekar government had ordered that the offshore casinos would be shifted out of the river by March 31, 2017 to alternate locations.

The cabinet has also granted permission to another offshore casino vessel run by Golden Globe Hotels Pvt Ltd for operating their leased vessel in river Mandovi for another six months.

The company has been asked to furnish all the relevant documents as sought by state Home ministry, he said.

The Goa bench of the Bombay High Court had recently ordered the state government to renew the licence of the offshore casino run by Golden Globe Hotels Private Limited.
