IFFI Goa to be on sponsorship in next 3 years: CM

Panaji, Jan 13 (UNI) Chief Minister Laximikant Parsekar informed the Goa Assembly today that in the next three years, International Film Festival of India (IFFI) will be held totally on sponsorship in Goa.
Mr Parsekar, who is also Minister for Information and Publicity, replying to a question tabled by Congress MLA Digamber Kamat on Expenses incurred on IFFI 2014 and 2015, said that in 2015, Entertainment Society of Goa (ESG) had taken an initiative to start IFFI on sponsership and got Rs 1.5 crore as sponsorship because the announcement was late.
In 2016, SEG is planning to approach corporate houses and others early in January or February for the IFFI festival sponsorship, to be held in November and expecting Rs five crore, next year Rs 10 crore and third year Rs 15 crore for the event, Mr Parsekar added.
