Karnataka state officials\nmight have issued statements in favour, but casinos are not expected to be\nestablished in this Indian state anytime soon. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

C.T Ravi, the Karnataka\nTourism Minister sparked controversy with his proposition to establish 15\ncasinos hubs across the State. He said that Bengaluru, the capital city of\nKarnataka would get 6 brand new casino centres. Three centres were proposed for\neach of these districts Mangaluru and Belagavi with one each in three other\nlocations in the State. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ravi exclaimed that Karnataka should draw their inspiration from popular cities such as \u201cLas Vegas to attract and entertain tourists.\u201d He said that casinos in Karnataka would enhance international tourism in the State. He cited Goa in his statement and said that they could attract foreign tourists who visit the coastline to Karnataka with casinos. Goa is located in the State\u2019s northwest border and has numerous casinos operating. Ravi also mentioned Sri Lanka and Singapore as popular destinations for tourists where they can freely engage in gambling<\/a>.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Ravi, the casinos<\/a> would operate in an organized manner with restricted entry to filter the gentry entering it. He said, \u201cIt will be set up in such a manner that it only attracts tourist crowd.\u201d He elucidated how the State would benefit from it in terms of increased employment opportunities and motivate private investors to capitalize on the casino business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His statements were\nsubject to public flak as the media and opposition parties disapproved such an\nintention. Even members of his party rejected his statement. Ravi claimed that\nhe had expressed his opinion on \u201chow other countries promoted tourism\u201d and that\n\u201ccasino tourism is one such thing\u201d. To all the criticism coming his way, he\nclarified stating, \u201cI have no intention of developing it here and there has\nbeen no discussion with the government on this as yet.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

J.C. Madhuswamy, the\nMinister for Law and Parliamentary Affairs, on Monday reiterated that Ravi\u2019s\nstatement was his and not a voice of the government. He stressed that what was\nsaid by Ravi as his fancy could not be made into a state policy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Currently, Goa, Sikkim and the UT of Daman and Diu are the only places across India where casino gambling is legal. While Karnataka has been contemplating the move of authorizing it, the State\u2019s collective reaction to Ravi\u2019s statement only shows that legalization of casino gambling<\/a> in Karnataka is far from becoming a reality.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
