Kamat on Monday participated in the agitation of lifeguards at Azad Maidan in Panji and expressed his solidarity with the agitating lifeguards. Hundreds of lifeguards assembled at Panji on Monday to protest against the government's lethargic approach in resolving their demands.

"Beach safety and lifeguard service are the most essential services in a tourist destination like Goa. We have seen many persons losing their lives due to drowning in the months when these lifeguards went on strike. The government should be sensitive towards lifeguards and their demands. The local lifeguards have every right to ask for support from the government," Kamat said.
