Even as authorities work overtime to widen the road leading to the Mopa airport ahead of its inauguration by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on December 11, structures coming in the way of the road-widening work are being demolished.
Two such structures were demolished at Nagzar-Mopa and Pernem deputy collector Deepak Vaingankar was present at the site to ensure that demolition was carried out without any law and order problem.
Owners of the two houses told reporters that they had not received any written notices regarding the demolition.
Pernem MLA Pravin Arlekar said that the owners of the two houses, which were being razed for the road-widening project, would be compensated.
