Goa Legislative Assembly

“This House strongly recommends the Government to enact a legislation to vest in itself the excess and unutilised land admeasuring about 17 lakh sq. mtrs. at Sancoale Village in Mormugao Taluka granted to then Birla Gwalior Pvt. Ltd. by the Sancoale Communidade for setting up of fertilizer plant and to utilize it for much needed housing needs of economically weaker sections in Cortalim Constituency and other purposes.”

“There is fear and anxiety in the minds of the people of Sancoale Village in Cortalim Constituency because the water which flows in the nullah which originates from Zuarinagar and passing through Sancoale Village and flows in the River Zuari near Cortalim Junction is emanating a very bad and foul smell. The Goa State Pollution Control Board officials inspected the site and took sample of water at 4 different spots and the report proved that the water in the Nullah is polluted and contaminated. The steps of the Government to resolve the same.”

Attention of the House is drawn amongst the people of Cortalim Constituency because the internal roads, residential land area get flooded during monsoon because the cross drains in Cortalim Constituency get choked up due to overbridge construction debris, garbage and dry leaves. The government should clean and repair all the cross drains in Cortalim Constituency before the monsoon to avoid flooding of residential areas.

“Attention of the House is drawn as regards the people of Cortalim Constituency because the Wholesale liquor shops are kept open beyond the closing time limit. This has created lot of fights, brawls and even stabbing . There is a strong demand by the residents of Cortalim Constituency to close these shops within the time permitted to them”.

I would like to bring to your urgent attention that it is informed that the Cortalim Jetty is going to be privatized by the Govt. to the Deep Sea Fishing & Marketing Co-op. Society Limited. 

All the people of Cortalim Village are against it and there is strong objection to this. There will be agitation and law and order situation in the village.

 I demand that the govt should not lease out this jetty to any private party.

I would like to bring to your urgent attention that most of the cross drains in Cortalim Constituency are blocked with debris, mud and other material. 

as they are not cleaned for long time. The fields are flooded and even the roads get flooded and damaged. Request the govt. to please issue directions

 immediately to clean the blocked cross drains for free low of water

I would like to bring to your urgent attention that there was a landslide at Cortalim Junction by the side of the road going to Cortalim Jetty yesterday evening. More than 500 mtrs stretch of the hill , the mud has fallen down. People park their two wheelers and catch buses at Cortalim junction. These bikes which were under the debris were removed and they are severely damaged. The mud is still sliding and there is a fear that all the huge trees which are on the hill may slide down and create more damage.Worse situation is at Sontrant hill near Sharayu Toyota Showroom where there is water  storage tank which can slide down on the road. Requesting the govt. to please take immediate action on this land slide maybe constructing a retaining wall.
