“Land owners can claim back the lands under the 110 survey numbers which has been identified as grabbed lands by SIT”, Sawant said. He, however said government will take custody of the lands not claimed by the owners.

He strongly stressed the need for an affordable housing scheme for the people of Goa. 

“Before even travelling on Zuari bridge, the bridge is causing issues for commuters. During rains, part of the bridge becomes a waterfall. The drains of the bridge have to be redone. Also, water test of all roads and bridges have to be done to ensure water flows into drains”, he said. 

He also demanded more Ambient Air Quality Monitoring Stations with display screens in all major towns and villages, especially Margao. 

He also suggested separate courts for cases related to businesses.
