The High Court of Bombay at Goa has barred MV Deltin Royale, a new 2,000-capacity casino vessel, from sailing into Mandovi river without prior court approval and necessary certifications. The interim order follows a PIL highlighting environmental risks and licensing issues. The court noted the vessel currently lacks a survey certificate and requires a fresh license for its massive capacity.
