“This House strongly recommends the Government to take immediate steps to revive the de-funct Communidades in South Goa. Communidade is a rich legacy of Goa and has to be preserved to safeguard our land and to stop illegal encroachments. The communidades which have not had any meetings or do not have a functioning committee should be assigned to a designated Administrative Officer and the same should be revived immediately.”

“Fear and anxiety in the minds of people of Goa regarding, the recent forest fires breaking out in various forests of Goa from Canacona to Sattari and Mhadei wildlife sanctuary. There are mountainous forest areas which are un-accessible to fire fighters, where fire trucks cannot reach to douse forest fires. It becomes very difficult for fire fighters to control fires in such un-accessible forest areas as a result fire spread out in uncontrolled way and this results in delays in putting out the fire. Government may provide the steps it intends to take in setting up any plans /solution in this regards which will enable fire fighters to reach out those fire affected forest areas which are beyond access of roads where fire trucks cannot reach, to combat forest fires. The Steps of the Government to remedy the Situation.”

1. the major issue in Panchayat areas is of Garbage seen dumped everywhere in free space along the road sides.

All the Panchayats are given funds by the Government to manage the garbage in their areas, some of the Panchayats has set up Garbage Treatment Plant/MRF shades.

However some Panchayats has not yet taken any initiative to resolve garbage issues in their ares, this becomes difficult for the people to live in such polluted atmosphere or to walk along.

Does Government has any plans to those Panchayats which has not taken any initiative to resolve garbage issues”.
