Cash unavailability closing down business: Goa casinos
Casino operators in Goa have said that the government's move to invalidate ₹500 and ₹1,000 currency notes has hit the casino business hard. Adding that most of the casino businesses have shut down, a casino owner said, "We have no money (in cash) to pay people and vice versa." According to reports, about 95% of casino customers are domestic tourists.
