Opposition parties in Goa are up in arms against a proposed bill that aims to regulate outdoor advertisements and hoardings in the state. The bill has sparked controversy, with critics arguing that it gives excessive powers to government officials and lacks transparency in the approval process. The opposition has raised concerns about the impact on the livelihoods of small businesses and the potential for corruption in the allocation of advertising space. The bill, if passed, would require all outdoor ads and hoardings to be approved by a government-appointed authority, leading to fears of censorship and favoritism. Critics also point out that the bill does not adequately address environmental concerns, such as the visual pollution caused by excessive advertising. The opposition has called for a more transparent and inclusive process for regulating outdoor ads, including input from stakeholders and the public. The controversy surrounding the bill highlights the ongoing tensions between the government and opposition parties in Goa. Stay tuned for more updates on this developing story.
