Goa is becoming notorious for cheap alcohol and drugs, and it appears that at least some people are growing cannabis plants in their garden, Earlier people were arrested in South Goa for growing cannabis, and in the latest instance of drugs being grown locally, the media reported that Cannabis plants valued at Rs 3.5 lakh were seized from the home of a 20 year old in Porvorim, North Goa, near Panaji
Most of the tourists to goa, stay in the north goa tourist belt, close to Calangute, Baga, Anjuna
With very few opportunities in goa, due to high levels of corruption, gardening is a popular option for people of all ages.
It now appears that Cannabis is becoming increasingly popular, because the newspapers are claiming that only two plants were found, and these plants cost Rs3.5 lakh.
So each plant is costing Rs 1.75 lakh, a fairly large amount.
