MARGAO: Navelim Congress MLA Luizinho Faleiro has written to Goa governor Bhagat Singh Koshyari over the people’s growing opposition to the three infrastructural projects passing through Mollem. He has stressed on the need for the government to understand people’s sentiments against the projects and “withdraw them forthwith”.
He said that that the three “ill-conceived” projects “have been dumped upon the state much against the wishes of the people of Goa”. “It is essential to understand the people’s sentiments against these projects and withdraw them forthwith as the administration cannot and should not bulldoze projects upon people which are being opposed for genuine reasons,” Faleiro said in the letter. “I stand in complete solidarity with the people of Goa in opposing the three projects which will surely spell doom for Goa and Goans.”
Expressing his anguish over deployment of armed police at the sites of the railways double tracking work, Faleiro urged the governor to “prevail upon the government to withdraw the armed politicians from the said sites.”
