"We can adopt technologies to ensure that we get our surface back. Techno-commercial concepts can be adopted with the help of the environment and other departments," he said.Speaking about the menace of littered glass water bottles and broken glass bottles on the seashore, Khaunte said that this is another challenge that the department has to address."There are several rules, despite the fact that the bottles (of liquor) reach the beaches. This should be stopped," he said.He said that foreigners come to beaches early in the morning to practice Yoga and also locals come for morning walk, hence beaches should be cleaned early morning. "We need to improvise on this," he said."We will get our own security force to act against the illegal activities taking place. We need to ensure that law is abided," he said.Goa Congress MLA Kedar Naik recently had expressed concern that the European tourists have stopped visiting famous Coco beach due to soil erosion and hence locals are facing issues of income source.
