Fish curry and rice to goans

This House resolves that the Government should formulate a policy to provide subsidised fish curry and rice to goans which is the staple diet of Goemkars. The constant and substantial increase in prices of essential commodities and fish is making it extremely difficult for the common Goemkars to make ends meet and thus maintain a wholesome diet. This House further resolves that this subsidised meal be provided through canteens which will be run by organisations such as women self-help groups, so that this programme will also provide an avenue of income for such organisations.”
