Capping the row over Special Economic Zones (SEZs) on the New Year eve, Goa government on Monday decided to scrap all the 12 exclusive economic zones and recommended to the Centre the denotification of three zones. We have come to this conclusion after a lot of deliberations. We will write to the Centre to scrap eight proposals pending for approval with them while we will not notify four which are already approved. About the rest three, we will take up the matter with Centre to denotify them, Goa Chief Minister Digamber Kamat said.

The Chief Minister, while announcing that the state has decided to do away with these SEZs, refused to say if Goa will say no to any SEZ in future.
