We see it every day of the year. Tourists behaving badly. It gets worse during Christmas and New year but is still bad enough behavior to get a mention in the news almost every single day. From driving badly on Goa’s roads to camping, cooking and even defecating in public, they do it all. Take the incident of the group of women tourists from Telangana that allegedly argued with and assaulted a 4 person squad of traffic police after being stopped for driving without helmets.
