The demand for a full-time Aadhaar card centre in Canacona finally became a reality, with the opening of the Aadhar Card Registration and Renewal Centre in the taluka.
Giving information on the occasion, Directorate of Planning, Statistics and Evaluation (DPSE) Deputy Director Neumani M Rodrigues informed that the Canacona’s Aadhar Enrolment Center is the 8th centre in the State, which will provide full-time services and appealed to people to take full advantage of the services.
Speaking on the occasion, Rodrigues said, “Aadhaar card is also an important document and is closely related to national security. The services will be provided here for everyone right from newborn children to senior citizens. The Aadhaar card has to be renewed every 10 years.”
Earlier, Speaker and Canacona MLA Ramesh Tawadkar inaugurated the Aadhaar Centre, and expressed satisfaction that the demand for a regular Aadhaar Enrolment Centre was finally fulfilled.
“The government is continuously doing a lot in Canacona. While Rs 93 crore have been approved to solve water problems, work on the 4-lane NH66 will start in 6 months, and in 10 years, the problem of employment will be solved. In spite of solving and pursuing health-related problems, some problems still persist,” said Tawadkar.
Others present on the occasion included CMC Chairperson Sara Shambha Naik Desai, Canacona Deputy Collector Madhu Narvekar, and Mamlatdar Manoj Korgaonkar.
