Goa to halt new rental permits for Thar SUVs due to safety concerns
In response to a surge in road accidents, Goa Transport Minister Mauvin Godinho announced that the state will stop granting new rental licences for Thar vehicles. Explaining the decision, Godinho stated, "As far as Thar vehicles are concerned, we are going to restrict issuing [new] licences to [operators of rental] Thar vehicles." He further noted, "It has got too much speed and no control...in the vehicle. So, they [people] just go and bang [vehicles] somewhere."
