Panaji, Dec 2: BJP MLA from Siolim constituency, Delilah Lobo, has urged Goa Chief Minister Pramod Sawant not to allow ‘Sunburn festival’ on December 31, stating that it will affect business of local restaurants and traffic jams will deter people from attending the midnight mass.
Delilah Lobo, in whose constituency the Sunburn takes place, said that the organisers have mentioned on their official website that this year they are holding it for four days instead of three.
The music festival is scheduled to take place from December 28 to 31 in the coastal area of North Goa.
“Every year it was taking place for three days, that was up to December 30, but this year organisers have mentioned that it will take place also on December 31. I have already requested Chief Minister Pramod Sawant not to allow it on the last day of the year as our local businessmen like shacks, restaurants, eateries will be affected. The New Year’s Eve is the business day for them,” she said. (IANS)
