Make MoU draft to be signed with Isha Foundation public: MLA

MARGAO

Congress Working President & Cuncolim MLA Yuri Alemao has demanded that the government make public the draft agreement to be signed with Isha

Foundation.

Saying the BJP government has already sold River Mhadei to Karnataka and the Western Ghats and Coast Line to crony capitalists for its political benefit, Yuri has claimed that Chief Minister Pramod Sawant now talks of the government inking an agreement with Isha Foundation with a focus on agriculture & coasts.

He demanded that the Chief Minister make public the draft agreement before signing the same.

“The people of Goa have lost trust in the BJP government whose every decision is compromising the interest of Goa. The people of Goa have the right to know what will be the exact role of Isha Foundation in the agricultural sector and coastline of Goa as stated by the Chief Minister. Let there be complete transparency,” stated Yuri Alemao.

He added: “It is important that policy decisions need to be taken after deliberations in the cabinet meetings and also taking Opposition parties into confidence. The same should not be announced at press conferences."
