Of late, many incidents have tainted the image of Indian tourism industry. While the Government is concentrating more on promoting the country as one of the most pleasurable tourist countries in the world, it has failed to curb the atrocities caused to the foreign tourists who are forced to face what they didn't expected to encounter here. What is the use in making efforts to keep the house clean and tidy for the visitors if no one is going to visit the place? Keeling's murder in Goa produced a shockwave across the nation and also across U.K and defamed the security provided to foreign tourists in India. The bitter part of this fable was that the Police attempted for a cover up so that they won't be held responsible for the brutal murder of this 15 year old girl. The girl's mother was pushed into a state of complete agony and misery since everything seemed to turn against them, including the Goa Government, which initially appeared to stand on her side. Very recently, on 9th October, an Australian national was beaten to death in Goa by a security guard and two waiters after the 65 year old Australian pulled a duel with these three men out of his bag. They are tourists and most of all, they are our guests. That makes patience of highest degree necessary for us. If we are privileged to kill someone just because he/she mocked the way we go around, each of us should have killed more than 100 people by now. If this is the case, then how can we call India a tolerable nation if the very word is missing even at the lowest level? What is the use of the politicians being 'Tolerable' in front of the TV cameras? Goa, which is known for its beaches, is now a dark spot on Indian map. Unfortunately, Goa has forced the world tourists to think twice before they plan for an Indian tour, which will definitely reflect a negative impact on the tourism industry of the nation.
