OLD GOA
The Save Mhadei Save Goa delegation continued to meet the local bodies urging them to pass resolutions to declare Mhadei Wildlife Sanctuary as a tiger reserve.
And on Monday, the delegation comprising Mariano Ferrao, Rajan Ghate, John Nazareth and Perpetua Ferrao met the CCP Mayor Rohit Monserratte as also the Deputy Mayor Sanjiv Naik and urged them to get the resolution passed demanding that Mhadei sanctuary be declared as a tiger reserve.
The delegation explained to the Mayor and his deputy on how the declaration of a tiger reserve would stop any attempt by neighbouring Karnataka to divert the waters of Mhadei.
Later, mayor Monserrate informed The Goan that he would consult his colleagues and take a decision on the matter.
Meanwhile, the delegation also met Merces Sarpanch Assis Fernandes, Taleigao Sarpanch Jonu Rosario and Deputy Sarpanch Rekha Pai, Santa Cruz Sarpanch Jennifer Oliveira and Deputy Sarpanch Domnic Pereira on Monday, and appealed to them to pass the resolution demanding tiger reserve at the fortnightly meeting as well as the gram sabha.
Earlier on Saturday, the delegation had submitted memorandums to Old Goa Sarpanch Sandra Gonsalves, Sao Mathias Sarpanch Supriya Tari and Goltim-Navelim Sarpanch Mario Pinto.
