The former Central Jail Aguada is soon to reopen as a heritage tourist destination from March 2021 as Goa government has nearly completed the renovation of the Portuguese-era structure.
The structure is undergoing a facelift under a Central scheme. Chief minister Dr Pramod Sawant held a meeting with tourism officials with ports minister Michael Lobo, freedom fighters, historians and officials of ASI as well as State Archaeology Department regarding the project.
“The stakeholders have given their suggestions which will be incorporated. 90% of the work at Aguada Jail is complete and we intend to inspect the venue in February. We will inaugurate it in March in the presence of freedom fighters,” the CM said.
