Acting on a report in The Goan, the Mormugao Municipal Council (MMC) cleaned the Upper Jetty children’s park much to the relief of residents in the area.
According to sources, the garden was cleaned after MMC Chief Officer Agnelo Fernandes instructed the municipal staff to get rid of thick vegetation at the garden, to ensure safety of children using the garden.
Sources said the action on the garden came within hours of a report in The Goan highlighting the plight of the garden.
The garden had overgrown bushes and thick vegetation and parents were reluctant to send their children to the park as snakes were sighted in the area and a python was also picked up from a nearby area a few months ago.
