India has a vast coastal line and hence houses some of the magnificent beaches in the world. Some of the famous beaches which are world renowned are situated in Andaman Nicobar islands , Kerala and Goa. When I say these beaches are world renowned so does the visit of foreign tourists to such beaches.
Some of prime destination beaches are possessed by the beach resorts and when I say beaches are possessed because according to Indian law beaches are public property, hence beaches cannot be owned by any private entity but can only be possessed by the entities.
But you know how far our people are smart enough to master hoodwinking the laws and hence have almost trick to occupy beaches and tuned them into premium spots as foreigners only visit. I had a personal experience when I visited the Kovalam beach in Kerala a few years before on an official tour to Kerala, was warned not to cross certain distance into the beach shore adjacent to resorts over there.
Yes! Foreign tourist guest add to the exchequer of the country but giving them god status and demeaning the local population however ignorant they are about international standards makes the entire experience of the foreign guest artificial which makes entire purpose of their touring unwelcome. Experiencing the tourist place without experiencing the local population is like experiencing fire without heat.
