The Cavelossim gram sabha on Sunday has resolved to prioritize budgetary funds for  disaster management, security, cultural activities, health and sanitation.

At the gram sabha chaired by Sarpanch Dixon Vaz, the meeting gave its approval for the budgetary estimates for the financial year 2024-25.

Gram sabha member Roy Baretto highlighted the CRZ issue which the panchayat previously raised with the government to safeguard the people living on the coast. Members also raised the issue concerning Blue Flag earlier proposed for the village. The Sarpanch, however, informed that no such proposal has come to the panchayat till date.

Members highlighted the garbage nuisance created by the people living in rented premises at which Sarpanch replied saying he will hold an awareness exercise ward-wise with the help of the ward members.

The Sarpanch also highlighted the development works initiated by the panchayat body in the last financial year.

Gramsabha member Prince Pereira and others thanked the Sarpanch and panch members for making the Cavelossim beach hawker-free and free from all touts, which was affecting the tourism business.

Dy Sarpanch Rinku Lobo proposed the vote of thanks.
