Aquem-Baixo meet says firm ‘No’ to gaddas along roadside at Rawanfond

MARGAO
The gram sabha of the Aquem Baixo village panchayat on Sunday has not only vetted the panchayat drive against the roadside gaddas at Rawanfond, but resolved not to allow the gaddas again at the site in the future.

The issue was a subject matter of debate at the gram sabha chaired by Sarpanch Danny Fernandes on Sunday.

The Aquem Baixo village panchayat led by Sarpanch Danny Fernandes had last month cracked a whip against the illegal roadside gaddas at Rawanfond by removing the illegal structures with police protection.

Meanwhile, the gram sabha has decided to scout for suitable land to house a fish market in the village.
