Greens and non-governmental organisations (NGOs) in Goa are up in arms and have red-flagged the short notice given by the State government for citizens to go through the draft Coastal Zone Management Plans ahead of the public hearings set for March 7.
Several NGOs have questioned the less than 30 days available for inspection and studying the plans in the run-up to the public hearings fixed for Sunday when laws provide for 60 days.
Nonetheless, many are expected to attend Sunday’s public hearings and also mobilize people from across the State to do so.
