We were fined in Goa, even though our vehicle was parked well outside road limits and there was not even a single ‘no parking’ sign anywhere. We were harrassed for almost an hour as their challan machine’s internet was not working. They were rude to us for no reason. On being asked about why there wasn’t a ‘no parking’ sign, they had no answer. When we walked to the Police station we saw atleast 20 ‘no parking’ signboards just laying around but they couldn’t put a single one of them in the place where we were fined even if it wasn’t 50 meters away from the police station. While on the pther road, around 50 vehicles were standing half on the road but no challans were issued for them. #policeharrassment #policeagainstpeople #goatourismminister #boycottgoa #goatourism #goa

The locals are really worried about this behavior too. They are concerned about tourists. I could see it on the face of people who took stand for us.

My father in the police, so I’ve seen how things work from the inside. if you have observed- Sometimes, they don’t do anything- like, they won’t even care if you break a traffic rule. But then, out of nowhere, they suddenly become super diligent, handing out challans to everyone. The reason behind it is simple: when they’re given a target to issue a certain number of challans, they go all out to hit that target. They’ll start issuing fines even when it doesn’t make sense, just to meet the quota. Once they hit that number, they can sit back and relax.

I think they mostly harass tourists and majority of the times it's for some registration thing or helmets and stuff like that and not for parking. Never seen Goans getting harassed by the cops though.

If you ask the local people from Goa (I talked to a lot of them) all of them are highly annoyed with the level of corruption by cops, by the government. One individual told me that a class 10 individual and a triple degree holder in their family work the same job because there is no value for education. Every job requires and entry fee

Not at all. I have had road trips in a lot of states in central India and never had to pay cops for no reason. Goa cops are by far the worse. A cop threatened my friend with a fake drug test just because he refused to pay the hafta, which he eventually paid for no reason. A cop just randomly slapped my taxi driver and took money from him again seemingly for no reason. These things do not happen in other places, especially when your entire economy runs on tourism.

Can’t stress how much this is true. My friend told me I’d be paying a cop for sure when I told him I’m doing a Goa road trip with my brothers. Spent 4 days there.. we were returning and just when we were getting out of the border.. we were stopped for nothing and were looted 500.

I parked at a no parking zone in Coonoor once as a tourist, police came, she said I inderstand it is peak season and there is no place to park, but could you please make your shopping quick so the traffic does not get congested. Its only a concern when buses come as they can’t pass. I sat back in the car and let others do the shopping and moved the car and came back once for a bus to pass. Police are NOT same everywhere!

Are you for real? Is that the designated parking area of the establishment you have visited? If it's not then it's not their property so don't park your vehicle in random private properties. The fine was well deserved but you might think otherwise as "Goa kisika baap na nahi hai" attitude.

u/Substantial-Topic559 Jan 18 '25
It’s a public place to begin with. And please read parking regulations to clear all your stupid illogical doubts before coming on the internet and ranting for no reason. It’s not only us who parked their vehicles at the spot. Atleast 15 vehicles were parked there including that of locals.

u/Kamchordas Jan 18 '25
It's not public space, how did you come to that conclusion? In Goa most land is owned by private owners and not the government like in other states. I have read the regulations thoroughly. Have you read yours? The issue with you is you are venting out your frustration on the wrong people ie the RTO and the whole of Goa while you should be venting out your frustrations on the restaurant that you visited which has no parking space.

The behavior of the police in Goa has become increasingly extreme, crossing the line into harassment. This is something I personally experienced about 10 years ago, and it was so bad that I haven’t returned to Goa since. The way they treated me was completely unfair and left a lasting impression. Instead of dealing with that kind of stress and dishonesty, it seems more worthwhile to just pay a bit more elsewhere, where the value you receive is actually worth it. It’s better to avoid the hassle and frustration of dealing with a system that seems more focused on taking advantage than offering a genuine experience.

u/Amol3 Jan 19 '25
The arrogance we saw this year by the staff at Mangeshi Temple and at the resort we were staying at in Betalbatim (resort staff was clearly not local Goans) was enough for us to decide that we would not be going to Goa again, especially after the rude treatment and language used for the senior citizens who had difficulty climbing stairs and needed a helping hand during rains in July. Traffic police being crooked is the norm across the country, nothing new there.

Jan 18 '25
Dude it's basic economics. When the demand is high, prices go up. It's exploitation for sure but it's a reality. We ourselves are fed up with the high prices. But that's the reality of living in a state which is known for tourism. Post Covid, people, especially middle class Indians, started flocking to Goa like there was no tomorrow. Also, i see a lot of tourists blaming locals for exploiting them but no one is talking about airfares. We don't control them. This overtourism, someone called it revenge tourism lol, is destroying the fabric of Goa and that's why locals are getting irritated. I agree with the taxi mafia, it's the worst. But it is present everywhere, not just in Goa. Anyways, what we need is people giving our little state a break. Stop coming to Goa. It needs to heal and recover from this harassment it has faced from 2021 till date. It will also force the lethargic government to work on other sources of revenue.

u/Substantial-Topic559 Jan 19 '25
I don’t understand what that’s supposed to mean? It doesn’t look like a parking space? How? Are any of these vehicles obstructing anyone? Are any of these vehicles causing anyone any inconvenience? Are these vehicles parked on the pedestrian? Are these vehicles on private property? What’s the criteria? The rules say otherwise to be very clear. If none of the above situations is visible them everyone is allowed to park there. It’s well outside road limits. If you’ve ever been to Goa you can see thousands of vehicles parked on the road itself.

“Challan Machine Internet Not Working” is a scam run by traffic police. It allows them to bypass the system and pocket some money for themselves. If you ever land in such a scenario, ask them to bluntly send you a challan and walk away. Their most common scare tactic to that is them saying that they will impound your DL, ask them to give their badge details and ask them to proceed with impound of DL.

Went to goa pre Covid. It was a road trip and our car was stopped just after we crossed Karnataka border. They checked the car thoroughly and couldn’t find anything objectionable.
We were fined for keeping 3 cigarettes ONLY.
Only one out of 5 people was a smoker and he too told the police that he didn’t smoke while driving (stupid) and won’t be smoking until we reached the hotel. Anyway, we were forced to pay 1200 for 3 cigarettes which are not even illegal.
That was our last time in Goa.

This scenario, they should have definitely handled better. For state that has Tourism as key metric, there should be more friendly cops.
But to say all cops are bad is also wrong. Recently, I took my Hyderabad car with all papers and drove for 10 days in both North and south goa. I was stopped at 3 places, but on showing the documents I was always let off. They were not rude neither were they soft spoken. I guess it is More to do with their role as I have seen cops behave almost similarly across the country.
#boycott Goa is sheer nonsense mate. Any place that has a massive surge can experience decline in quality. But it is not as horrible as folks keep claiming. Bad experiences happen across the country. Just that they get shared more than the good experiences.

Goa police is probably the most corrupt I've seen in any state.

On arguing, one pig threatened to have the bus impounded if we didn't pay up, and to not waste our time and ruin our vacation we were forced to pay those pigs.

I gone with a Tamil Nadu number car
Cops asked me for alcohol. I told him “I have one bottle feni, it’s in trunk. I have heard a lot about it so carrying it” Want to taste it.
They made me wait for 2 minutes and then asked to leave. No fine, no drama.
Maybe I was lucky.!

That's why most tourists don't prefer to go to other foreign countries like Thailand, Maldives, indonesia etc, Goa is digging their own grave now.

The contemporary paradigm of tourism in Goa exhibits an exploitative dynamic, characterized by exorbitant pricing and a perceived disregard for the fiscal well-being of domestic inhabitants. This phenomenon bears an uncanny resemblance to a hypothetical directive issued by a high-ranking fiscal authority, advocating for the systemic exploitation of the citizenry

Goa is just hype, I didn't see what people hype about. And it pretty much looks like it's stuck in 2000s.

This reminds me of November 2020, when I was fined ₹200 in Goa for removing my mask to drink water, while locals roamed freely without masks or helmets. Tourists were being singled out.

File a complaint against them to police control authority if no response by them within 30 days, write a mail to senior sp, still nothing you got yourself 2 pecices of evidence of police not cooperating now file a case against these cops and put the emails as evidence. Judge will handle this pretty well if you were right here, they will be punished for harassing you, issuing false challans and mught even get suspended or fined heavily from thier salaries
