St Andre MLA blamed for power woes in constituency

PANAJI

Revolutionary Goans members from Tiswadi lashed out at the government saying it had failed to address the issues of power woes in the St Andre constituency and also accused the sitting MLA Francis Silveira of the same.

In a press release, Revolutionary Goans said: "Our leaders, are only fighting among themselves to maintain their political turf, and to score political points, but are not bothered about the problems faced by the public. The people of St Andre constituency have been facing power outages almost every day over the last two months causing several difficulties to them."

In the press release Revolutionary Goans President and resident of Tiswadi, Viresh Borkar pointed out that the people are facing frequent power cuts during the year.

“One can imagine the state of power during the monsoon as the slightest of wind and drizzles end up causing power failure raising a question on the quality of pre-monsoon work carried out by the electricity department. Locals opine that underground power cabling is the only way forward and will bring an end to the power woes,” said Viresh.
