Sussegado. Fun. Sun. Beach. Heritage. The list of things that come to mind when you think of Goa is long, but doesn’t generally include items like AK-47s or Glock pistols. That’s the good news. The bad news is that the number of guns in Goa and the state’s gun culture are clearly on the rise. It’s our cover story of this week’s Goa Streets. Here, drug we present you the whole story – well researched, order meticulously documented and carefully written. We hope this article sheds light on an important issue for the state.

To be sure, not everything we’ve written about this week has to do with heavy topics like weaponry. To prove the point, take a look at our piece on a different kind of culture also taking root in Goa – that of lingerie appreciation! Or our story on three lovely Goan singers, or Miramar’s yummy ‘eat street,’ or our piece on a wonderful extravaganza of Goan song and dance. On these pages, we take you to some fantastic book shops to help you while away the monsoons and we give you an insightful interview with up-and-coming Goan fashion  designer Falon D’Cruz. And be sure not to miss our story on the sad state of Goa’s subways.
