In goa, the government has laid down certain rules for tourists to go to New Year's parties and celebrate New Year in restaurants during this Covid. In goa, chief minister Pramod Sawant has said that only people with proof of having been vaccinated by the Govt or proof of not being infected with the covid will be allowed to go to parties or restaurants in coastal areas. He further said that a detailed report will be issued in all the districts by this evening. The government has decided not to implement the night curfew in goa as it could affect businesses during the christmas and New Year periods.

However, before the start of the New Year celebration, almost 90% of a large number of tourists are staying in hotels in goa, as well as the beach where people are flooded with waves of joy. Airlines, which had been suspended due to the covid epidemic, are now back in service after a long break.
