Sunburn burnt out EDM festival was shunted out because of spreading ills of drug abuse.It was relocated and strangely made comeback .Now the Govt wants to foist it on Salcette.The vox populi has raised hue and cry to stop the shifting. The music is not indigenous and it is drugs ,prostitution,criminal activities that are the attraction. and strain on law and order ,traffic regulations et all.Goa is not on world rudder of Tourism because of EDM. The so-called revenue benefits outweigh peace and tranquility issues and coreupting youth .Goa needs to aggressively promote our own music and culture. In Dec there are enough enjoyable and entertaining activities that are a draw.Instead Govt need to provide better infrastructure and law and order measures. Criminal activities ,murders ,rapes and robberies have sullied the image of Goa as tourist paradise .Tourist are enamoured with local flavour of customs ,culture etc and not imported EDM festivals.Govt should take note of feelings of the people or risk mass protest.
