Opposition parties in Goa are up in arms against the proposed bill aimed at regulating outdoor advertisements and hoardings in the state. The bill has sparked controversy and drawn criticism from opposition leaders who argue that it will stifle freedom of expression and adversely impact businesses. The opposition has voiced concerns about the potential misuse of power by authorities in granting permissions for outdoor advertisements, leading to selective targeting of political opponents. The bill, if passed, would give the state government control over the placement and content of outdoor ads, including hoardings, billboards, and posters. Critics fear that this could lead to censorship and curtail the creativity of advertisers. The opposition has demanded that the bill be withdrawn and a more consultative approach be adopted to address concerns raised by stakeholders. The government, however, has defended the bill, stating that it is necessary to bring order to the chaotic display of outdoor advertisements in the state. The bill is currently under review, and the opposition has vowed to continue their protests until their objections are addressed. Stay tuned for more updates on this developing story.
