With more than half of the offshore casino vessels in Goan waters operating without NoCs, the State Government today sought submission of all required documents from these vessels within a month.

The Ports Minister, Mr Nilkant Halarnkar, told the Assembly that the NoCs of the five vessels, out of seven, have expired.

Responding to the volley of questions posed by the Opposition benches led by Mr Manohar Parrikar, Mr Halarnkar said he has asked all the casinos to produce all the documents required for the NoC before the deadline ends on April 1 this year.
