OLD GOA
MLA Viresh Borkar has demanded a separate fire station be allotted for St Andre constituency as currently the Old Goa fire station has to be relied upon in case of incidents of fires or other natural calamities.
Speaking to reporters after meeting with Chief Minister Pramod Sawant, Borkar said a separate fire station for St Andre is the need of the hour as the current fire incidents have shown that there is loss of valuable time to deal with calamities like fires.
“Therefore, I have placed a demand before the CM that St Andre be allotted a separate fire station,” the MLA stated, while adding that he has also brought to the CM’s notice about the deliberate fire incident at Dandi-Agassaim.
Further, Borkar stated that he has also demanded that the strength of the Agassaim police station be strengthened so that law and order is maintained in the village.
