MARGAO

Managing Director of Sewerage and Infrastructural Development Corporation of Goa Ltd (SIDCGL) N Parsekar has told The Goan that his office will look into the perennial issue of overflowing sewage chambers in the commercial capital during the monsoon.

PWD officials in private, however, demanded to know whether the underground line was tested and checked by the SIDCGL before handing  over the same to the PWD for maintenance.
