MARGAO: Opposition leader and Margao MLA Digambar Kamat on Friday vowed not to spare any effort in bringing about all-round development of Margao.
“Margao is my birth place and I am committed for overall development of this commercial capital of Goa. I will not keep a single stone unturned for overall development of Margao,” Kamat said after inaugurating the culvert linking Margao town to Davorlim village on the Eastern Bypass intersection.
The culvert has been constructed at a cost of almost Rs 40 lakh.
Speaking further, Kamat said that several development projects in Margao were in the works, which includes beautification of the road along northern side of Konkan Railway station which is currently in progress. The illumination work of most of the areas across the city has been completed with installation of 4 and 6 arms poles, the Margao MLA said.
He further informed that the construction work of parallel road over bridge connecting Davorlim to the Quepem road at Rawanfond will also commence shortly. While the existing road over bridge has two lanes, the proposed parallel road is planned to be a four-laned one. The proposal moved by Kamat in late 2019 had found favour with the state government with Goa State Infrastructure Development Corporation (GSIDC) undertaking the execution of the project.
