Admission for Engineering Colleges in Goa

“Fear and anxiety in the mind of parents of candidates who aspire for taking admission for Engineering Colleges in Goa by answering the entrance test as government has abolished the GCET exam from 2023-24 and instead adopted JEE mains for granting admission for such programmes. The level of examination of JEE is not suitable for the type of curriculum that has been adopted by Goa Board and hence this step will result in rampant rise in coaching classes that charge exorbitantly. The steps the Government will take to ensure that poor students will not suffer and lose an opportunity to secure admission to local Engineering colleges”.

Road Access to the Houses

“Fear and Anxiety in the minds of the people of Goa with regard to road access to their houses. There are thousands of houses in Goa which do not have motorable road access and instead use the traditional (kaccha) road access through private property.  The survey department failed to show access to many properties on the survey maps.  This has resulted in an increase in conflict in the villages where landlords have been blocking road access to the affected people's homes by constructing compound walls. As a result, it is almost impossible for emergency services to access such houses in case of an accident or weather-related disaster. The steps the Government has taken to initiate a State-wide exercise to identify such landlocked properties and modify the survey maps to reflect existing access to such plots”.

Accidents at Dandewaddo Chinchinim

Fear and anxiety due to frequent recurring accidents at the junction in Danddewaddo Chinchinim. The fear and anxiety experienced by travelers passing through the area and the residents living nearby are valid and should not be ignored. Swift action must be taken to address the root causes of these accidents and to implement preventive measures for the future.

Widening the road to allow for better traffic flow and visibility, along with the installation of traffic signals, can significantly improve the safety of the junction..

By prioritizing safety and taking proactive steps to enhance the infrastructure and traffic management in the area, we can create a safer environment for everyone using the road. It is important to listen to the concerns of the community, acknowledge the risks they face, and work together to make the necessary changes to prevent further accidents and tragedies. Let us act decisively to address these long pending issues and ensure the well-being of all individuals traveling through and residing in Danddewaddo Chinchinim.
