With a claim that three linear projects are BJP's agenda projects, Goa Pradesh Congress Committee (GPCC) President Girish Chodankar on Sunday said that it will take 500 years for the state to recover from the mass destruction of the environment, forest and wildlife if these are allowed in Goa.
"The Chief Minister Pramod Sawant and BJP are planning of making their fortunes for the next 50 years from the crony capitalist club of Prime Minister Narendra Modi," alleged Chodankar in a press statement issued on Sunday.
The press statement was issued in reaction to the statement of the Chief Minister in the morning at the function in South Goa that the three linear projects are brought with 50 years of planning for Goa.
"The three linear projects will cause irreparable damage to the biodiversity of Goa. The BJP government at the Centre as well in Goa have already sold our Mother Mhadei to Karnataka. They are now all out to finish the bio-diversity rich Western Ghats and kill the identity of Goa," Chodankar stated.
