Goa is
considered as one of the most advanced states in India
in terms of education and social infrastructure. The
state is rich in many minerals and there are some large
manufacturing and production units operating out of the
state. By far the largest industry in the state is
tourism, which has contributed significantly to the
state’s economy. With a much higher literacy rate than
the rest of India and significant improvement in
physical infrastructure, Goa is poised to become one of
the leading economic regions in India, which would be in
a position to attract larger number of tourist to its
fold.
