Goa Budget tabled; focus on resumption of mining

Goa Chief Minister Pramod Sawant on Wednesday tabled the State Budget for 2022-23 in the Legislative Assembly with an outlay of ₹24,467 crore.

With the resumption of mining in the coastal State being a major poll plank of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), Dr. Sawant said that the newly-formed BJP-led government was confident of generating revenue of ₹650 crore in the new fiscal year through mining activities.

“We hope to resume mining activities soon. A mining dump policy will be put in place,” Dr. Sawant said, tabling the Budget on the concluding day of the two-day Budget session of the Assembly.
